Iran IRGC commander: Any menace which interrupts our people's tranquility will be faced by reciprocal measure
Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ground Force says that people's security and national interests are the most important “red lines” of Iran, IRNA reported.
Any insecurity and menace in borders which interrupts "our dear people's tranquility" will be faced by reciprocal measure, Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour told reporters during his visit to border areas in northwest of the country.
IRGC forces have been deployed in northwestern Iranian borders to defend that part of the country during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict that started about a month ago, according to the sepahnews report.
As the commander noted, this conflict has made Iran dispatch forces to the area.
Pakpour went on to say that IRGC is active in border areas, monitors border developments, and takes due measures to deal with any condition.
The commander said Iran respects territorial integrity of the neighboring states, but cannot tolerate any changes in the nature of the borders.
Since the resumption of the Nagorno-Karabakh war, several missiles have fallen in the Iranian soil.
