An advisor to the chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has warned the US against committing any “foolish act” vis-à-vis Iran, saying American ships, military bases and interests are “within the reach of our weapons.”

According to The Iran Project, “The Americans should know that if one day they enter the battlefield and want to take action against the Islamic Iran, their bases, interests and ships will be within the reach of our weapons,” Brigadier General Ebrahim Jabbari said.

“We have brave and capable forces who will definitely respond to any overstepping the bounds by the Americans.”

However, Jabbari said that Washington was unlikely to commit such a “foolish act”.

“Although the Americans support Israel, it is unlikely that they will commit a folly and engage in a conflict with Iran. They always advise the regime not to engage in a conflict with the Islamic Republic.”

Jabbari stressed that the US “is not prepared at all to confront us, the axis of resistance and the Muslim world.”

His remarks came as the United States confirmed that its military is sending an anti-missile system operated by American troops to aid the Israeli forces following the Tel Aviv regime's failure to defend itself against Iran.
