IRGC spokesman Hossein Moqavi warned that any repeat of a previously tried and failed attempt against Iran will end in regret, according to Iranian state-linked sources. The statement comes amid heightened US-Iran tensions and follows a series of similar warnings from senior Iranian officials in recent days.
IRGC spokesman Hossein Moqavi issued a bellicose warning Monday evening, stating that 'whoever repeats an attempt that has already been tried and failed will end up regretting it.' The remarks, carried by Iranian state-linked channels, are the latest in a series of maximalist statements from Tehran as US-Iran tensions hover near a potential flashpoint. Moqavi targeted the United States directly: 'If the United States wants to re-experience its previous failures, it will regret it.' The threat follows days of Iranian official warnings—from parliamentary security committee spokesmen, an army spokesperson, and senior Guards officers—about alleged US preparations for military action. The IRGC statement has not been independently verified by Western outlets, though its tone aligns with the regime's established pattern of psychological warfare during escalations. As The Zioneer has reported across multiple bulletins this week, Tehran's messaging consistently frames the US as the aggressor while threatening disproportionate retaliation—a posture analysts describe as defensive bravado masking strategic vulnerability. No specific operational threat or timeframe was attached to Moqavi's words.
