Irans defensive power ready to prevent any offensive: Gen. Pakpour

MAN Commander of the IRGCs Ground Force Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour says the Islamic Republics military doctrine is based on deterrence, but the armed forces are fully ready to back off any possible offensive by the enemies at an operational level.

Addressing an annual gathering of IRGC Ground Force commanders in Mashhad on Tuesday, Brigadier General Pakpour said the Islamic Republic's defensive power is at a very high level, emphasizing that although Irans military strategy is based on the principle of deterrence, it is offensive at an operational and tactical level.

Our readiness is not for war, but for preventing war, he stressed.

IRGCs drone units are ready to get involved in any battleground and this is one of the points the enemy is afraid of, he added.

Back in June, a US spy drone intruded into Iranian airspace, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps brought it down after the drone ignored Irans several warnings.

Referring to the enemys desperation in its warmongering against Iran and its fear of the countrys defensive power, the IRGC commander said the US is now seeking to undermine Irans deterrence power and destroy the Islamic Republics missile power, however, he noted, the Islamic Republics armed forces will never let this wish of the enemy come true.

The General also warned that the enemy is trying to create division between the nation and the government and hinder our resistance, calling on people and the armed forces to be vigilant against such conspiracies and enhance their unity.
