TEHRAN, Jul. 28 (MNA) – A senior commander at the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps warned that the countries trying to distort the true image of Iran and undermine its stability will face the consequence of their actions.

“Those seeking to show Iran as an unstable country, while the country is making all-out efforts to contain the coronavirus as well as the US bullying, will definitely pay heavy prices for their actions,” Commander of Khatam-al Anbiya Central Headquarters Major General Gholam Ali Rashid said on Tuesday on the sidelines of the final stage of the 'Great Prophet-14' military drill in the south of the country.

“Our armed forces will employ all their capacities to defend the Islamic Republic in the face of any aggression, as well as any destabilizing threat,” he stressed.

He warned that “the occupying and corrupt countries that have already faced the crushing response of the Islamic Republic to their threats and misconducts, shall await more consequences for their behavior against the Iranian nation.”
