A senior general of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on March 28 that adversaries had misjudged the real strength of Iran in a 40-day war. The remarks were made amid rising tensions across the Middle East.
According to the general, opponents failed to anticipate Iran's defensive capacity and counterattack power. He emphasized that Tehran had clearly demonstrated its military prowess, forcing adversaries to alter their strategies.
The 40-day war was cited as evidence of Iran's resilience against external threats. Security analysts suggest the statement aims to reinforce confidence in the country's domestic defense capabilities.
No official reaction has yet been issued by countries implicated in the remarks. Iran's military regularly conducts drills and unveils new weapons systems to assert its strategic posture.
