MEHR: The chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says that the Army and the IRGC will continue to shine in the frontline of guarding the Revolution and driving the avowed enemies of this holy land to despair.
Major General Hossein Salami made the remarks on Monday in a message sent to Iran’s Army Chief Commander Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi to congratulate him on National Army Day.
“There is no doubt that the perceived threats from the camp of malicious and adventurous enemies against Islamic Iran are endless,” Salami wrote.
He noted the country’s Armed Forces along with the security and intelligence institutions have worked hand in hand to challenge the anti-Iran strategies and policies pursued by the arrogant powers and the Zionists and disrupted their calculations.
“By God’s grace and in compliance with the wise instructions of … Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Army and the IRGC – as powerful arms of the great Iranian nation – will continue to shine in the frontline of guarding the revolution as well as religious, revolutionary and national values and driving the avowed enemies of this holy land to despair.”
The IRGC chief also noted that the Army has over the past 44 years put the strategy of “permanent strengthening” on its agenda.
The Army, he added, has not contended itself to the progress already made in the defense sector and not overlooked, even for a moment, the threats posed by the enemy’s plots.
Army Day, which is celebrated annually on April 18, was established by the founder of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, in 1979.
