The Iranian army's spokesman stated Sunday that the military is exploiting the ceasefire period to strengthen its capabilities, according to an official statement. The remark is the latest in a series of maximalist Iranian military declarations, as The Zioneer has reported on multiple occasions in recent weeks.
The Iranian army's spokesman said Sunday that the military is using the ceasefire period to strengthen its capabilities, according to a statement carried by Iranian media. The statement did not specify which capabilities are being enhanced. The Zioneer has reported on a series of similar declarations from Iranian military officials in recent weeks. On June 8, an Iranian military source told Tasnim that Iran is prepared for a protracted war. On June 30, the Iranian army's ground forces commander said rapid-response units had been deployed to the borders. On July 2, the army spokesman said Iran is 'ready to enter war' and that the military 'still sees itself in a state of war.' The latest statement, made during a ceasefire, suggests Tehran continues to maintain a maximalist posture.
