Iran Vows 'More Crushing Response' to Any New US 'Mischief'
Iran’s armed forces chief of staff has warned that “any new mischief” by the United States will be met with “a more crushing and decisive response.”
“The time has come for the evil rulers of the United States to withdraw their terrorist army forces as quickly as possible from the region,” Major General Mohammad Baqeri said on Wednesday.
The overnight retaliation following US assassination of the Middle East's most prominent anti-terror commander demonstrated only a fraction of the capabilities of the Iranian armed forces, he said in a statement.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) hit two US military bases in Iraq with several precision-guided Fateh missiles shortly after Gen. Qassem Soleimani was laid to rest in his hometown of Kerman, with initial reports of many casualties.
"The glorious overnight operation demonstrates only a fraction of the capability of the Islamic Republic of Iran's armed forces and is a response to the terrorist act of the American regime in martyring the honorable commander General Qassem Soleimani," Baqeri said.
"And from now on, any new American mischief will face a stronger, more crushing and wider response," he added.
Tasnim news agency quoted an informed source at the IRGC intelligence organization as saying that at least 104 targets in the region had been pinpointed for attack in case the Americans perpetrated any new aggression.
According to the source, 15 ballistic missiles hit Ain al-Asad air base in Anbar province early Wednesday morning, none of which were intercepted by the radar system of the "terrorist American Army".
"The time now has come for evil rulers of the United States to have a better understanding of the Islamic Republic of Iran's capability in a wide geography of the world and adopt a principled approach," Gen. Baqeri said.
