Iran Army Chief Says National Strength Rooted in People's Faith and Unity
Major General Amir Hatami links Iran's resilience to public resolve alongside military deterrent capabilities, according to state media IRNA.
Iran's Army chief, Major General Amir Hatami, said that the country's real strength lies in the faith, unity and resolve of its people, combined with the defensive and deterrent capabilities of its armed forces, according to a report by the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
The remarks, published by IRNA on Tehran's official news wire, frame national strength as a combination of societal cohesion and military preparedness, according to the outlet.
IRNA did not provide additional details in the excerpt regarding the context, date, or venue of Hatami's statement, nor did it specify whether the comments were made during a public address, military ceremony, or press briefing.
Major General Hatami has served as Iran's Army chief and has previously held senior defense positions within the Islamic Republic's military establishment, according to prior IRNA reporting.
The statement comes amid ongoing Iranian state media coverage emphasizing the country's military and civilian resilience, though independent verification of the specific claims was not immediately available.
