Major General Ali Abdollahi, commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters, issued a stern warning to the United States, saying any act of aggression or brutality would be met with a decisive and destructive response. In a statement published by Iranian state media, he described the United States as the 'Great Satan' and an 'enemy that is criminal, treacherous, and deceitful.'

Abdollahi emphasized strengthening unity among Iran’s armed forces, citizens, and government officials. He pledged that the United States would be forced to pay a higher price than in past conflicts. According to him, after repeated failures in military confrontations, the enemy is now attempting to create division and discord between the Iranian people and their leadership.

He further stated that Iran’s defense capabilities form the solid foundation of peace and security for the nation’s courageous people across all regions, from south to north and east to west.
