"Iran's intelligence ministry has dominance over terrorists and the enemies have so far failed to conduct even a single successful terrorist operation inside the country," Alavi said on Saturday.

The Iranian intelligence minister reiterated that the existing security in Iran is the outcome of cooperation, convergence and mutual understanding among different key organizations of the country, including the Interior Ministry, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), the Army, police and the judiciary system.

Alavi said that the Islamic Establishment is responsible to provide equal benefit from security and justice for all the people.

“In an Islamic government, all the officials should be heartedly at the service of people to serve them with expecting no rewards from the recipient of services,” reiterated the intelligence minister.

In relevant remarks earlier last year, Alavi underlined that despite all attempts made by various terrorist groups, Iran is the most secure country in the region due to its powerful defensive and military forces.

"Although we are witnessing insecurity in the world and everyday we see bomb blasts, suicide and gun attacks or massacres, thank God, Iran enjoys full security," Alavi said.

He reiterated that the enemy is doing its best to make Iran an insecure country, and said they are even training terrorists to produce explosives from several chemical substances to explode them in different places across Iran.

Yet, the intelligence minister said all terrorist attempts have been foiled so far.
