TEHRAN (Defapress) - Various incidents have plagued the West Asian region over the last two years, and numerous field events have thrown the region out of balance.

Options on Iran's Table to Respond to a Possible US Military Attack

One of the serious events that occurred in the West Asian region with foreign intervention was the military attack by the Zionist regime, with the participation of the United States, on Iran, which did not achieve any goals for the American and Zionist sides.

In the attack on the morning of June 13, the Zionist regime, with the participation of the United States, carried out a massive attack on Iranian soil, and in less than 24 hours, the missile response of the Islamic Republic of Iran narrowed the field for the Zionist enemy, the United States.

Although the Islamic Republic of Iran did not start the war, it caused widespread destruction in the cities of Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Be'er Sheva, as well as the ports of Ashdod and Ashkelon, with successive strikes in 22 waves of missile and drone attacks. These attacks led to the Zionist regime surrendering within 12 days and requesting a ceasefire.

Now, considering the experience that the United States and Israel have gained, this time the President of United States of America has threatened Iran with a military attack in successive rhetoric, while he has witnessed the heavy blows inflicted by the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the previous series of military attacks; now the question that arises is what will be the options on Iran's table to respond to a possible American attack?

Devastating missile response in different styles to the United States and the Zionist regime

As we know, the United States has various military bases in the West Asia region, the most important of which are the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, Incirlik in Turkey, Sheikh Isa in Bahrain, and Al-Dhafra in the United Arab Emirates. These military bases are close enough that the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the drone units of the Islamic Republic of Iran's army can target these bases with suitable missiles and drones, including the Fateh-110 and Khalij Fars missiles, as well as the Shahed, Arash, and Hadid-110 drones.

The Al Udeid military base is also one of the important US military bases where the strategic assets of the United States Army are located, and can be included in the Islamic Republic of Iran's target bank. In the Annunciation of Victory Operation on the last day of the war with the American Zionist enemy, the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran targeted this base, destroying the Geodesy Dome of the said base and some related facilities in this military base. This is a serious experience for the United States, which, in the event of another attack on Iran, could result in the Islamic Republic's missile attack on the Al Udeid military base. The political analyst in this field, Mohammad Marandi, referring to the possibility of a US military attack on Iran, says: In the event of a military attack by the US army under the leadership of Donald Trump, Iran's response will be devastating and widespread.

Missile and drone response to the occupied territories

Another action that Iran may take is a missile and drone response to the occupied territories. The fascist regime of Israel has experienced this issue well in the 12-day war and knows that in the event of another war, all the occupied territories will be within the range of Iran's ballistic and hypersonic missiles. The difference between the possible response in the next possible war and Iran's missile response in the 12-Day War is that Iran will use powerful Khoramshahr missiles with 2 to 4-ton warheads and MIRV warheads in this war, each of which can target a wide range of targets in the occupied territories.

Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh, Minister of Defense and Support of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, said about the possibility of a military attack by the United States and the Zionist regime on Iran: "In the event of an invasion by the enemy, Iran's response will be harsh and painful."

He added: "The Islamic Republic of Iran has a large number of reserves in missile cities, and if war is imposed, it will use them without hesitation and without consideration against targets anywhere."

In the 12-Day War, we witnessed that a few Fatah and Khybershakan hypersonic missiles are capable of destroying military research centers, refineries, and economic infrastructure of the Zionist enemy. For example, the firing of a Fatah missile during the 12-day war destroyed the Bazan refinery, deep in the occupied territories, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage to the Zionist regime.

Options on Iran's Table to Respond to a Possible US Military Attack

Possibility of closing the Strait of Hormuz

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most strategic areas in the world today and is the main artery for the import and export of tens of millions of barrels of oil in the region and the world; if the conditions become difficult and the exchange route for the Islamic Republic of Iran encounters difficulties, likely, the exchange route and transit of goods for countries around the world will also be difficult, and this is possible by closing the Strait of Hormuz. The armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of coast-to-sea missiles and using the triple tactic of anti-ship missiles, sea mines, and patrol craft, can inflict irreparable blows on the US naval fleet.

The US showed in the naval war with the Ansar Allah movement that it did not have sufficient capabilities to deal with them, and therefore, the same experience could happen to the Yankees with greater intensity in the Persian Gulf. The point to consider is that the enemies continue to insist on a wrong strategy, and if the same wrong strategy is repeated, there is a possibility of their fleet being destroyed in the region; Although war is not an interesting phenomenon and event in general, and Iran certainly suffers losses, we must stand up to bullying so that the pharaohs of the time do not miscalculate regarding our country.

Possibility of Resistance Forces' involvement in the region

Another possible scenario regarding the war with the United States is the possible intervention of resistance forces in the region in favor of the Islamic Republic of Iran and even a coalition against the Zionist regime; a ground war with the fascist Israeli regime may also break out, and this issue can be examined as an alternative in the near future; also, American interests throughout the region are within the reach of resistance forces, and this will also be an important point.
