Iran supreme leader Mujtaba Khamenei told senior military commanders to maintain
high readiness and apply strong force to achieve maximum deterrence, ordering
immediate, effective responses to threats of any level or form that are not
constrained by geography. He warned that if enemies mount further military or
terrorist attacks, Iran’s armed forces and people will determine the timing and
conditions for ending the conflict. He directed expansion of military
intelligence, deeper domestic defense development in doctrine and tactics,
accelerate adoption of new technologies to modernize defense and security,
strengthened morale and logistics support, and an updated target list to ensure
US and Israeli adversaries’ tangible and intangible assets are within Iran’s
strike range.
