The commander of the Iranian Army Ground Force has warned that the forces will “incapacitate” the United States and the Israeli regime if they wage a ground invasion of the country.
Brigadier General Ali Jahanshahi made the remarks on Thursday during a visit to Iran’s borders amid reports that the invading US-Israeli coalition are planning to occupy Kharg Island in a bid to force Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz to their vessels.
Jahanshahi warned the enemy against any ground incursion, saying it will be "more dangerous and costly" for them.
“The Iranian Army forces are standing firm and steadfast on the frontlines of defense and they will incapacitate the enemy,” he added.
The commander also emphasized that every inch of Iran’s territory is protected by vigilant Iranian forces, who are monitoring all enemy movements while standing ready for any scenario.
The illegal US-Israeli aggression on Iran began on February 28 with airstrikes that assassinated senior Iranian officials and commanders.
The Iranian armed forces have responded by launching almost daily missile and drone operations targeting locations in the Israeli occupied territories as well as US military bases and assets across the region.
They have also blocked the strategic Strait of Hormuz to oil and gas tankers affiliated with the adversaries and those cooperating with them.
