A senior Iranian security official says the Islamic Republic is at its “highest level of military readiness” and warns any act of aggression by the United States or Israel would be met with a swift and unexpected response.
“Iran is currently at its highest level of military readiness, and if the United States or the Zionist regime attempts any act of aggression, they will be caught by surprise,” the official, who did not wish to be named, told Press TV.
The security official downplayed recent US military repositioning in the region, calling it a defensive reaction to Iran’s warnings that it would target their regional interests and bases in case of any act of aggression in the country.
“What the Americans are doing is not a message of threat to Iran, but rather a reaction to Iran’s threats against their interests,” he said.
Speaking to Press TV, a senior Iranian security official warned that the Islamic Republic will surprise the US and Israel if they attempt any aggressive actions.

The remarks come as the United States begins a partial evacuation of its personnel from the West Asia region. On Wednesday, the US State Department ordered the departure of non-emergency staff from its embassy in Baghdad and advised the voluntary departure of military dependents from bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates.
US President Donald Trump confirmed the move, saying, “They are being moved out because it could be a dangerous place. We’ve given notice to move out, and we’ll see what happens.”
US officials cited heightened tensions in the region and intelligence suggesting that Israel may be preparing a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, prompting fears of Iranian retaliation against American assets in the region.
The Iranian security official said the trove of secret Israeli documents Iran has recently obtained “has given Iran extensive intelligence superiority regarding the target bank of the United States and the Zionist regime.”
On Sunday, Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib of Iran confirmed that the materials, which include documents on Israel’s clandestine nuclear program and records of its nuclear plans and facilities, had been transferred under heavy secrecy to Iran and would be published soon.
The security official also pointed to recent advances in Iran’s military capabilities, including the successful test of a ballistic missile with a two-ton warhead, as announced by Defense Minister Brigadier General Amir Nasirzadeh.
“Iran is now capable of catching its enemies by surprise by launching deadly preemptive strikes before any hostile movement on their part,” the official said.
The contradicting messages coming out of Washington indicated that they have no “practical initiative on the battlefield” and therefore have resorted to psychological warfare, he added.

LOL..
The jewe state reminds of the mouthy little welp with the big bully friend one always encountered at school… you know the type, the swaggering little prick that thought he was the big man…
Best practice I found was always separate the two and treat the welp to a severe and grueling dose of pain first…
this creates incentive, the big one can then usually be talked to…on his own of course.
Of course I don’t take the mullahs at all seriously the biggest tell, lol, is all the nooklear nonsense they are all bloviating about endlessly…nonsense such as the Samson option…they need to fix the fizzics first.. that’s just prolefeed..because they’ve run out the clock…on their variations of the same cubist cult..
Hypothetically speaking if they are all talking shit, they are all in it together..give or take…IF for example the Mullahs are all really babylonian amorite talmudics which they invented..it would be in their interest to give the comic book isreally’s..fucking superpowers.. because jewes are very good at scribbling that type of horseshit aren’t they?..they’ve built a semblance of a culture on it over there on the other side of the Atlantic ocean..
Amerika Amerika..where everyone’s a ‘super star’..lol..
….and owns a but plug…
would it not?..
Boy those Iranian missile defense news articles you’ve been posting on here for weeks really took out those US-Israeli jets bombing Iran..Its all BS.
