Deputy commander of the Ground Forces of the Iranian army, Brigadier General Seyyed Nasser Hosseini, in a trip to the southern city of Shiraz, said, Americas threats in the region and on our borders are serious. We have comprehensive and serious plans to stand up to these threats.
America is a threat to the people of the region. Its presence in this region and in our neighbouring countries is causing havoc, Hosseini said.
We are completely ready to face these threats, the army commander said, adding that threats by the U.S. had always existed and Tehran had to be aware and serious in facing them.
With the changes that have been made in the equipment in the army, it is militarily suited for withstanding U.S. threats. Theoretical and field training, as well as manoeuvres in battle have been increased in this regard, he added.
