In response to US military aggression against southern Iran, which has primarily targeted civilian infrastructure, the Iranian armed forces continued their retaliatory operations on Thursday.

The United States deployed weapons “reserved for World War III” against Iran during the recent war of aggression, but failed to achieve its objectives, an Iranian military spokesman says.

The IRGC's top command says the force will adhere to the directives of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution to punish the enemy.

Iran's precision strikes on US bases in Jordan under Operation Nasr-2 have reshaped regional equations, exposed American-Zionist military integration on Arab soil, inflicted significant casualties, and demonstrated capabilities that signal the end of US military hegemony across West Asia.

The Army's Air Defense Force, operating under the unified national air defense network, shot down an MQ-9 Reaper drone in the western region of the country on Sunday.

General Qa’ani expressed gratitude for the Leader's "grace and magnanimity" toward the resistance front and reiterated the loyalty of commanders and fighters to the covenant made with the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution.

General Javani stressed that Tehran's armed forces have responded decisively to every act of aggression, whether against military or civilian targets.
