Donald Trump: General Mohammad Pakpour, the commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, has issued a stern warning to the United States and Israel to avoid any form of misadventure. Pakpour added that Israel and USA should learn from historical experiences of what they faced during the 12-day imposed war. The IRGC Commander added Iran has its finger on the trigger, ready to carry out the orders of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Donald Trump Issues Warning
Donald Trump has warned Iran that US naval “Armada” was progressing towards the Gulf. The US President said the prospect of an imminent military action could not be ruled out.
Last week, US media reported that USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group has been asked to perform manoeuvres in the South China Sea. The US President told reporters on Air Force One that the United States is watching the Islamic Republic of Iran.
He went on to reiterate that his threat to use sizeable force against Iran resulted in a stoppage of 837 protestor hangings. The US President said he was open to the idea of having discussions with Tehran.
On Wednesday, Iranian authorities provided their first official toll from the nationwide protests. It was added that 3,117 people were killed though many rights groups claimed that the number of casualties could be much higher. Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, the NGO Iran Human Rights director, said the real count of protestors who died is much higher than the official figures provided by the Iranian government.
IGCR is sanctioned by many countries including the United States, Australia and Canada as a terrorist entity.
Joint Command Headquarters’ General Issues Warning
General Ali Abdollahi Aliabadi who leads the joint command headquarters in Iran, also issued a warning that all US bases, interests and centres of influence would be the legitimate targets of the armed forces of Iran.
