TEHRAN (Defapress) - Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini, spokesman and deputy public relations officer of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in the presence of a group of Basij professors and elite seminaries in Mashhad, pointed out that the definition of victory in modern wars is the achievement of strategic goals, and stated: The enemy's goal was to clearly confront a strong Iran and ultimately overthrow it by combining military action and internal rebellion; but the Islamic Republic not only thwarted this plan, but also stabilized the balance of deterrence in its favor with a decisive response.

Stating that the enemy suffered multi-layered defeats in this war, he stated: The enemy was defeated in the military, intelligence, perception, and psychological operations fields, and the enemy was surprised by the decisive and unceasing, and unexpected response of True Promise 3 Operation. It was Iran that surprised the enemy by quickly restoring the command structure and a powerful offense.

Explaining the operational details, the spokesman for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said: The enemy's multi-layered and impenetrable defense system, which was proud of the world's modern technology, was completely saturated and became ineffective with a smart combined attack consisting of 22 waves of cyber, missile, and drone operations. The defense penetration rate increased significantly in the final waves, which indicated the depletion of the enemy's missile reserves.

Referring to the extent of the damage inflicted on the enemy, the deputy head of the IRGC Public Relations Department said: "The missile strikes on vital targets such as the Navatim and Ramon air bases, the Mossad center, the Haifa refinery, and other vital centers of the Zionist enemy demonstrated the high precision of the intelligence and operational work."

Sardar Naeini considered that the Supreme Leader, by managing the initial shock, maintaining command cohesion, and directly directing the operation, His Highness personally transformed the enemy's computational apparatus, which was based on a weak Iran.
