Brigadier General Alireza Sabahi Fard, commander of the Iranian Air Defense Forces, said that “the Zionist attempts to threaten Iran are just nonsense for internal consumption.”

He pointed out, according to a report by the Fars news agency, that “the Zionist entity has not done and will not do such stupidity, and if it wants to do it and hasten its demise, then let it come on the scene.” emphasizing that Israel has become forced to make such statements in order to convince internal public opinion, noting that Tel Aviv itself knows that in this world it has no place for boasting, and it is like an “empty drum”.

The Iranian military leader pointed out that Israel was pleading with others to stop their military operations and wars in the Gaza Strip, noting that “the Zionist Iron Dome system also cannot intercept missiles fired at them, and that their people and the whole world know this”, having in mind the refusal of the Israeli defense system from missiles in front of the Palestinian resistance.
