If attacked, Iran will pound all centers of Zionists: Iranian military official

TEHRAN, Nov. 21 (MNA) – Deputy Chairman of Iran’s Joint Chiefs of Staff Gholam Ali Rashid threatens if Iran is attacked, it will target and hit all the centers of the Zionist regime. “We are fully prepared to pound all the centers of the Zionists through reliance upon the missile power which has been gained through the efforts made by Great Martyr Hassan Tehrani Moqaddam,” Major General Gholam Ali Rashid told in an interview published on Sunday. Tehrani Moqaddam, who was the director of the IRGC Jihad Self-Sufficiency Organization, was among the personnel of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps who were martyred in the recent blast at an IRGC munitions depot near Tehran. In response to claims that the Zionists had a hand in the blast, Rashid said, “They are not capable of doing such a thing at all.” “Over the past 30 years, they (the Zionists) have always attributed any natural disaster or incident like military plane crash to themselves,” he added. “Mossad, CIA, or any other intelligence service could not do such a thing at all, because Martyr Tehrani Moqaddam was always punctilious and observed security issues,” Rashid said. Commenting on the recent threats issued by the Zionist regime against Tehran, the Iranian top military official said that they do not have the potential to carry out their threats. “It is just a kind of psychological warfare.”
