The Commander of the Central Headquarters of Khatam al-Anbiya also stated: "For us, the forces of the army and IRGC, it is an honor that today, the enemies, instead of being happy and opportunistic in taking advantage of our defense weaknesses and vulnerabilities after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, are in fear of the authority of Iranian forces."
