Iran not to be caught off guard: Defense chief

TEHRAN, Aug. 02 (MNA) – Iran's acting defence minister on Sunday dismissed the notion that Tehran might be caught off guard by enemy threats, saying all threats are taken seriously and serve as a basis for increasing preparedness.

Brigadier General Seyyed Majid Ebn-e-Reza, Acting Minister of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics, said recent enemy statements, while made in the context of psychological operations and a "war of calculation," were viewed by Iran as actual threats.

"We are neither caught off guard nor passive; we treat the threat as a basis for increasing readiness, strengthening deterrence and enhancing our power," he noted.
