TEHRAN, Sep. 13 (MNA) – The commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) says that the Islamic Republic of Iran has grown more powerful after engaging in any conflict with its powerful enemies.

Major General Hossein Salami made the comments in a gathering of Basij voluntary forces held at the Shahid Bahonar Trainain Camp in the northeast of Tehran on Wednesday.

"One of the most fascinating features that appeared in our revolution is that wherever we engaged with a powerful enemy, we built up power and succeeded," General Salami said.

He added, "So far, the enemy has tried all the scenarios and has experienced all different strategies," but it has failed against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The IRGC chief further noted that the enemies have now targeted the beliefs and trust of the young Iranians in the Islamic government with their media campaign and psychological, calling for amending the education system and school textbooks to awaken the young students against enemy plots.
