Ali Abdollahi Warns The United States And Israel Iran Will Respond Forcefully To Any Attack

Lieutenant General Ali Abdollahi, commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said on Tuesday that Iran and its armed forces have become "more prepared and stronger than before," warning the United States and Israel against any new military move against Tehran.

“The spokesperson for the Iranian Armed Forces, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shakarji, announced in an interview with Al Jazeera that his country is prepared for war and has identified its target bank in case the United States and Israel launch a new attack against it”

Abdollahi said that "Iran's hand on the trigger will respond quickly, decisively, with force and broadly to any attack or new aggression," and he added that any "new mistake" by Iran's opponents would be met with a "stronger and broader response than the Ramadan War imposed."

The statements came amid ongoing regional tension and reciprocal escalation between Iran and the United States and Israel, alongside military and diplomatic moves taking place in the region.

In a separate statement, the spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Defense said Iran is prepared for "all scenarios" as American and Israeli threats against Tehran continue.

The Ministry of Defense spokesperson also said that "America's prestige has collapsed at the hands of our forces" and that a large portion of Iran's military capabilities "has not yet been used."

The Iranian Ministry of Defense spokesperson said Iran will respond "more severely" to any new attack targeting Iranian territory, confirming that Iranian forces are in full readiness to face various possibilities.

The same statement said indicators are growing of a breakdown in negotiations between the United States and Iran, coinciding with rising talk in Washington and Tel Aviv about potential military options against the Iranian nuclear program.

In an interview with Al Jazeera, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shakarji, spokesperson for the Iranian Armed Forces on the island, said Iran's strikes would be "harsher, heavier and stronger" if it is subjected to any attack.

Shakarji said Iran has identified its target bank in case the United States and Israel launch a new attack, and he added that the response to any new aggression would be different from previous responses.

He also said Iran would prevent oil from leaving the region if export is blocked, and he vowed to destroy infrastructure in the region if essential and sensitive infrastructure were attacked by Washington and Tel Aviv.

Shakarji told Al Jazeera that Iran will "never be the ones to start a war" but that "we are the ones who determine its end," describing it as the general policy of the Islamic Republic.

“The spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Defense said that Iran is prepared for 'all scenarios', in light of escalating regional tensions and the continuing American and Israeli threats against Tehran”

He said that if the Americans and the "fake Zionist regime" make a mistake, "the strikes that will come from the Iranian armed forces and the Iranian people will be far harsher, heavier, more violent, and stronger than the two previous wars."

Shakarji also described the Hormuz Strait as a point of disagreement between the sides, saying Iran will manage the vital corridor with firmness and resolve to create security and ensure international trade and the global economy.

He added that Iran would defend its interests with all it has, and he linked the threat of renewed conflict to U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to strike vital facilities.

Across the other statements, Abdollahi and the Iranian Ministry of Defense framed readiness as a response to continued U.S. and Israeli threats against Tehran, with Abdollahi saying Iran will "cut the hand of every aggressor."
