Iranian lawmakers wear IRGC uniforms in mockery of US move

Iranian lawmakers wear IRGC uniforms in mockery of US move
Tasnim The Iranian lawmakers were sporting Islamic Revolution Guards Corps uniforms at a Tuesdays session of the parliament to express solidarity with the IRGC official military force which has been blacklisted by the US government.

Before the beginning of this mornings session, a group of MPs wore the IRGC dark green fatigues to reaffirm support for the IRGC military forces -an official branch of the Iranian Armed Forces- and denounce the US labeling of the IRGC as a terrorist group .



They also chanted Death to America and Death to Israel in the parliament.

US President Donald Trump announced on Monday that Washington is designating the IRGC a foreign terrorist organization, marking the first time the US has formally labelled another country's military a terrorist group.

Responding to the move, Iran's Supreme National Security Council immediately declared the US as a state sponsor of terrorism and US forces in the region terrorists.

The SNSC said it has put CENTCOM on its terror list as a reciprocal measure against the US illegal and unwise move.
