In an interview published on Sunday, Ali Larijani, an advisor to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, announced Iran is preparing to respond to Israel following the regime’s October assault on Iranian territory.

The interview conducted by the Tasnim News Agency followed Larijani's trip to Lebanon and Syria, where he met with top officials from both countries to convey the Leader's message regarding the regional situation.

During the discussion, Larijani emphasized the importance of responding adequately to the actions of the Zionist regime. He acknowledged that while some may argue that certain provocations from Israel may not warrant a significant response, it is crucial for Iran to maintain a posture of deterrence.

"This is an important issue, and the relevant officials are closely monitoring the situation to ensure that the response given to Israel possesses the characteristics necessary for effective deterrence," Larijani stated.

He further elaborated that military officials have deliberated various strategies in response to Israel's actions.

They could be accumulating R-37 air-to-air missiles to attack incoming Israeli jets. They could also be accumulating Mach 9 Zircon cruise missiles which their friends in Lebanon and Yemen use to sink every US ship within 1,000 Kms range.
