Israel’s aggression indicates ‘miscalculation’, has ‘unimaginable’ consequences: IRGC chief
The chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says Israel’s recent act of aggression against the Islamic Republic, which was thwarted by the country’s air defenses, indicates the occupying regime’s miscalculation and frustration in the face of the resistance front.
Major General Hossein Salami made the remarks on Sunday, a day after Iran’s air defenses intercepted and successfully confronted Israel’s recent act of aggression.
The Israeli regime attacked several Iranian military facilities early Saturday, killing four servicemen of the Armed Forces and one civilian. Iran’s Air Defense Base said some limited damage was caused in some areas, the dimensions of which are being investigated.
“The illegitimate and illegal action of the child-killing Zionist regime, which failed to achieve its ominous goals because of the readiness of the country's air defense, shows miscalculation and frustration of this regime on the battlefield” against resistance fighters in Gaza and Lebanon, Salami said.
He further warned that the attack will have “bitter, unimaginable consequences” for the Israeli regime.
Salami also mourned the four army servicemen who were “courageously” martyred in the Israeli act of aggression on Iran.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Sunday that Iran is not looking for war but will give an "appropriate response" to Israel's latest act of aggression.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has also stated that the Islamic Republic’s response to the act of aggression will be “definite and calculated.”
