Army Spokesperson: Iran to Pursue War Until ‘Political Authorities Deem Fit’
Tehran will continue the imposed war as long as its political leaders deem it necessary, Iran's Army Spokesman Brigadier General Mohammad Akraminia stated.
The enemy's objectives have clearly not been achieved after more than a month of unchecked assault, Brig. Gen. Akraminia said in a statement on Monday."The Islamic Republic of Iran's system stands with authority, has responded to threats, and in some cases has been able to reciprocally operationalize threats against the opposing side," he continued."The opposing side has, in fact, been defeated," he added.According to Akraminia, the ultimate goal of continuing the resistance is to instill a lasting sense of remorse in the enemy – a psychological and strategic state that would serve as a powerful deterrent against any act of aggression in the future.
The remarks came as the war imposed on Iran entered its sixth week, with Iranian Armed Forces continuing to have an upper hand on the battlefield and the enemy looking for an off-ramp amid heavy human and material losses.Tehran has so far carried out almost 100 waves of missile and drone attacks with advanced weaponry targeting Israeli military facilities in the occupied territories, as well as US bases and assets scattered across the West Asia region.
While acknowledging that some may interpret this approach as emotional, the Iranian spokesperson emphasized that it is "completely based on strategic rationality."He stated bringing the enemy to this point is essential to prevent the recurrence of war."If this goal is achieved, the level of deterrence will increase to such an extent that the enemy will no longer dare to take action against the country again," Akraminia noted.
