A senior Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) officer was killed in a US-Israeli airstrike hours after he warned the “enemy” of an incoming “surprise” in a defiant challenge to US naval claims in the Gulf. The IRGC said their spokesperson Ali Mohammad Naini was “martyred in the criminal, cowardly terrorist attack by the American-Zionist side at dawn”.
“His transformative ideas and effective models in ‘soft war’ will continue guiding the revolution’s guards against arrogant powers,” the Guards added.In his last statement before death, the brigadier general had openly mocked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s assertion that Iran can no longer enrich uranium or manufacture ballistic missiles. He had said that Tehran’s missile industry has reached its ‘highest levels’ despite the war with Israel and the United States.
Naini stated that Iran’s missile production continues even during wartime, with sufficient stockpiles available without any concern.
