Baku:Deputy Executive Coordinator of the Iranian Army, Brigadier General Alireza Sheikh, stated that the Army's equipment has been upgraded, and its forces are prepared to respond to any threat.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Sheikh's remarks were made on Sunday, addressing threats against Iran that involved the possible use of a "mother of all bombs" in a conflict against the country.

Sheikh emphasized that the Iranian people, referred to as the "fathers of bombs," could have a more destructive impact than anticipated by the enemy, affecting their thoughts, psychology, mindset, and strategies.
