Commander: Israeli patterns for assault analyzed by Iran

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran has scrutinized and analyzed the invasion and assault patterns used by Israel during the 33-day war on Lebanon in Summer 2006, Head of Iran's Civil Defense Organization Brigadier General Gholam Reza Jalaliannounced for the first time.


After Hezbollahs 33-day war we sent a team to Lebanon and studied the models of Israels assault on the Lebanese buildings and collected 5,000 images of all the destroyed buildings, Jalali said, addressing a conference dubbed the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC)s Defensive Engineering in Tehran on Monday.

He said the Iranian military engineers have analyzed the power of the Israeli explosives, and came to the conclusion that the damage inflicted on targets by the Israeli army is more the result of the engineering patterns used during the sabotage operations or raid and assault than the explosive power of their bombs or ammunition.

Elsewhere, the General noted the change in threats posing to Iran, and said the change in threats have caused a relevant change in Iran's defensive doctrine.

Threats against us changed after the US presence in the region and invasion against Iraq.

Subsequently, the IRGC commanders spent some time to change their (operational) doctrine and we came to the conclusion that we should avoid specific points and exercise mosaic defense (a flexible and layered defense) on our agenda, Jalali said.

In relevant remarks in 2012, Jalali said that the IRGC has been the ruling system's winning ace in confrontation against different threats.

"The IRGC has been the Islamic establishment's winning card in the confrontation against different threats and the underlying cause of its stability against various invasions," he told FNA at the time.

He said although the IRGC's military approach might be comparable to that of other countries' armies, "its ideological nature and its defense of the Islamic Revolution causes and ideals has made it so distinct from other armies that even enemies of Iran believe that this is a key point".

"In the last 33 years after the Islamic Revolution, the IRGC has succeeded in having an active presence on all scenes where the revolution has been endangered and has always been able to manage them," the General added.

He said the IRGC has always proved as Iran's winning ace in confrontation against such different threats as plane hijackings, border skirmishes and insecurities and soft war, and has served as the underlying cause of the ruling establishment's resistance and stability against such threats.
