We prepared for this through Operation Iron Shield, and this preparation led Iran to confront the air superiority that you embodied so well."

He continued: Since last Monday, we have seen what is taking shape in front of us, as we believe that the State of Israel is very strong and capable of dealing on its own, but given the many threats and their remoteness, we are always happy, and I tell you that with all frankness, the fact that after contacting the Commander of the Central Command of the United States Army United States, General Kurilla, last Monday, he arrived in the country on Thursday, to begin joint coordination operations. This statement carries a very important significance, as Iran finds here a very strong international capability."
