Admiral Ali Akbar Ahmadian, a representative of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution on Iran's Defense Council, wrote in a post on X that Iran will "neither retreat under threats nor be wayed by noise and hollow displays."

"This region is our playing field, and our responses are based on rational, real calculations, not Hollywood-style theatrics," he added.

Admiral Ahmadian said that the Islamic Revolution, in its first phase, expelled the US from Iran, and now the second step is the expulsion of the US from the region.
