Tehran: A senior spokesperson for Iran's Armed Forces declared that Tehran is prepared to respond to any threats with increased force, underscoring the Islamic Republic's resolve to withstand external pressures and hostile actions.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi emphasized Iran's readiness to deliver decisive responses during a ceremony commemorating the first anniversary of those martyred in the 12-day US-Israeli-imposed war against Iran. Shekarchi stated, "As we have proven, we will respond to every threat with a harsher, stronger and more crushing response than before."

Shekarchi specifically addressed the actions of US President Donald Trump, asserting that every threat from Trump had been met with what he described as a "teeth-shattering response" from Iran. He firmly stated that Iran would not back down in the face of global dominance, directly naming Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as adversaries.

Reassuring the nation, Shekarchi said, "There is no cause for concern," expressing his belief that, with divine assistance, Iran would prevail. He reaffirmed Iran's commitment to overcoming its adversaries and expressed confidence in their eventual defeat.
