The announcement by Iranian army spokesman General Akrami that new anti-aircraft equipment has entered operational service follows a similar statement by the IRGC spokesman earlier tonight (22:06 Jerusalem), who said new air defense systems had been brought into service. The two announcements come amid a broader Iranian messaging campaign emphasizing military readiness. The army's statement, carried by the Abu Saleh Arab Desk, provides no details on the type or quantity of the new equipment. The Zioneer previously reported on the IRGC announcement as part of the same thread of new air defense capabilities.
