Mohsen Rezaee, the former Islamic Revolution Guard Corps chief, says the Iranian armed forces are fully prepared to respond forcefully to any Israeli strike on Iranian nuclear sites.

“In case Zionists go insane and attack Iran, they would receive a crushing response from Iran’s armed forces which would cause their annihilation,”

Rezaee, the current secretary of the Expediency Council, told the Mehr News Agency on the sidelines of the International Quds Day .

He said the recent threats against Iran by the “helpless Zionist regime’s officials” are intended to lessen the effects of the Quds Day and Non-Aligned Movement summit which will be held in Tehran next week.

He added, “The recent threats by the Zionist regime’s officials are more psychological rather than real.”
