The military space forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC, the elite units of the Iranian Armed Forces) are ready to give a tough response to the enemies of Iran if they make any mistake, the commander of the IRGC Aerospace Forces of the Islamic Republic, Amir-Ali Hajizadeh said.
⠀
Hajizadeh’s statement came amid escalating tensions in the Middle East region following Iran’s missile attack on Israeli territory in early October.
⠀
“The IRGC military space forces, along with other armed forces of Iran, (being in a state ) of readiness, are vigilant and vigilant in ensuring that if any mistake is made by the enemies of this land, they give a tough response, forcing… the enemies regret,” Hadjizade said.

On October 1, Iran subjected Israel to massive rocket fire for the second time in history, calling it an act of self-defense. The Israeli military says about 180 ballistic missiles were fired, most of which were intercepted. Videos on social networks captured the aftermath of shells falling in different areas of Israel. The shelling, according to Israeli authorities, caused no casualties among the country’s citizens. A number of media outlets reported the death of one person, presumably a Palestinian from the Gaza Strip, in the West Bank.
⠀
The Iranians claim that the missiles hit Israeli military targets; the Israelis call the damage “minimal.” They promise to strike back, and the United States to come to the aid of its main Middle Eastern ally.
