Iranian Army Declares Full Combat Readiness Along Borders

Brigadier General Ali Jahanshahi announced that Iranian Ground Force units are in full combat readiness to deter foreign incursions, specifically targeting U.S. military presence.

Brigadier General Ali Jahanshahi, commander of the Iranian Army's Ground Force, announced Sunday that all military units are in a state of full combat readiness to protect the borders of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Following inspections of units in southeastern Iran and along the Makran coast, Jahanshahi warned that the military would provide a decisive and deterrent response to any incursions. He specifically stated that any American military presence setting foot in Iran would be cut off.

This mobilization includes the deployment of special forces, drones, armored formations, and rapid-response units to border areas to ensure sustainable security. Army spokesperson Brigadier General Mohammad Akraminia supported this stance, affirming that the military is continuously enhancing its combat capabilities to counter threats, citing the lessons learned from two previous wars.
