IRGC Starts Drills in Eastern Iran
Fars News Agency :: IRGC Starts Drills in Eastern Iran
TEHRAN (FNA)- The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ground Force on Saturday started a series of military exercises in Iran's Eastern regions.
Commander of the IRGC Ground Force Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour said that the main phase of the drills, codenamed as Shohaday-e Vahdat (Martyrs of Unity), will start in Khaf general zone, East of Iran, on Monday.
Pakpour stated that the wargames are aimed at boosting security along the Iranian borders and are part of the IRGC ground forces' routine drills staged to maintain and boost combat preparedness of the IRGC units.
The commander also mentioned that exercising tactical strategies and asymmetric tactics of the IRGC combat units is among other objectives of the drills.
Earlier this month, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi announced the IRGC will soon stage its most massive naval exercises in Iran's Southern waters in the near future.
The IRGC's new drills came less than a week after Iranian Navy wrapped up its 10-day naval drills in the international waters in the Sea of Oman and the Indian Ocean.
