BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 18. Iranian army's navy
can defeat opponents again, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed
Mojtaba Khamenei said in his address on the occasion of "Iranian
Army Day" today, Trend reports.
According to him, the Iranian army is defending the country's
territory with all its might and taking necessary measures if
necessary.
Khamenei added that, as in the previous two wars (the Iran-Iraq
war and the war with the U.S. and Israel last year), the Iranian
army, together with the country's other armed forces, stands guard
over the country.
Meanwhile, as no tangible progress was made in the nuclear
negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, the situation escalated on
February 28, when the United States and Israel launched military
airstrikes against Iran. In retaliation, Iran initiated missile and
drone strikes targeting Israeli and U.S. installations in the
region. Following these developments, a two-week ceasefire
agreement was brokered on April 7 through Pakistan's mediation.
However, during subsequent talks between the U.S. and Iran in
Islamabad on April 11, no consensus was reached.
