Tehran, Iran

The top commander of the Iranian paramilitary Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Friday that his country was fully prepared to respond to any U.S. military pressure.
Tensions between Tehran and Washington have remained high in the waning days of President Donald Trump’s administration. Gen. Hossein Salami spoke at a ceremony at Tehran University commemorating the upcoming one-year anniversary of the U.S. drone strike in Baghdad that killed Revolutionary Guard Gen. Qassem Soleimani, who headed the expeditionary Quds force, on Jan. 3, 2020.At the time, Iran retaliated by launching a ballistic missile strike on a military base in Iraq that caused brain concussion injuries to about 100 U.S. troops.
