Tehran, April 2 (ANI): Iran’s military on Thursday rejected US President Donald Trump’s recent remarks and warned the conflict will persist until Washington endures “permanent humiliation, regret, and surrender,” Iranian state media Press TV reported.
A spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters said US claims of degrading Iran’s military infrastructure and capabilities were false and described US intelligence on Iran’s military strength as “incomplete.” The spokesperson asserted that Washington is unaware of the Islamic Republic’s “vast strategic capabilities” and dismissed Trump’s assertions that Tehran’s ability to launch missiles and drones has been dramatically curtailed.
“You know nothing of our vast strategic capabilities. Do not assume you have destroyed our strategic missile production sites, long-range attack and precision drones, modern air-defence systems, electronic warfare, or special equipment. Such assumptions will only deepen the quagmire you have fallen into. The sites you think you hit are insignificant; our strategic military production takes place at locations you do not know about and will never reach. Do not bother trying to count our missiles, drones, and strategic systems; you will be wrong and achieve nothing,” the spokesperson was quoted as saying by Press TV.
The Central Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters coordinates operations between the Iranian Army and the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC). The spokesperson accused the US of initiating aggression and vowed continued retaliation: “You must pay for the aggression you started against our honourable, beloved, Muslim nation. This war will continue until you face permanent humiliation, regret, and surrender. Expect more crushing and devastating strikes from us in continuation of the severe blows you have already received,” Press TV quoted.
Trump, in a national address since hostilities began in late February, praised the US military for what he called a “decisive” blow to Iran and said the campaign’s core objectives were nearing completion. He claimed Iran’s maritime and aerial capabilities had been systematically dismantled, asserting “Iran’s navy is gone, its air force is in ruins, and its leaders, most of them terrorists, are now dead.” He added that Iran’s ability to launch missiles and drones was “dramatically curtailed,” saying weapons factories and rocket launchers were being destroyed and that the United States was “winning bigger than ever before.”
