IRGC Aerospace Force to turn enemy skies into ‘an even greater spectacle’; Commander

A senior Iranian military commander has warned of a major escalation in retaliatory strikes, saying the next phase of attacks will be more intense than previous operations.

Brigadier General Majid Mousavi, commander of the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), said in a message that “enemy skies will turn into an even greater spectacle”, signaling imminent large-scale action.

Response to Public Demand for Stronger Action

Mousavi stated that the escalation reflects public demand within Iran for a stronger response to what officials describe as continued aggression by the United States and Israel.

He emphasized that Iran’s adversaries are “incapable of defeating the country,” reinforcing the government’s stance of resistance.

Escalation Following Leadership Losses

The remarks come amid heightened tensions after Iran claimed the martyrdom of its Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians during ongoing conflict.

Mass rallies have reportedly taken place across Iran in support of the country’s leadership and military response.
