Iran's ArmyCommander, Major General Amir Hatami, threatened Thursday to target all USallies across the Middle East if Washington moves forward with a groundmilitary operation against Iran, according to Iranian state television.
Statetelevision quoted Hatami as saying that "no one should survive" ifthe enemy attempts a ground operation, adding that Iranian forces are closelymonitoring what he described as the enemy's movements and actions, and haveprepared plans to counter offensive tactics.
Hatami'sremarks came as US military assets continued massing across the region.According to US media reports and US Central Command (CENTCOM), American forceshave repositioned naval groups, combat aircraft, and ground troops acrossmultiple theaters. By late March, the buildup included amphibious groups in theBab al-Mandab Strait and the Gulf of Oman, F-22 Raptor jets deployed to Israelin their first offensive deployment of this kind to the region in years, andelements of the 82nd Airborne Division joining Marines already stationed in theArabian Sea, bringing total US troop presence in the broader region to anestimated 40,000 personnel or more.
Hatami furtherstated that "the specter of war must be removed from us," arguingthat it is unreasonable for other places to remain safe while the Iranianpeople are under threat —framing the targeting of US regional partners as amatter of strategic equity rather than escalation.
Hatami servesas commander of Iran's conventional armed forces, a position distinct from theIslamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the elite parallel military structurethat operates independently and holds significant influence over Iran'sregional proxy network. Israel claimed responsibility for assassinating Hatamilast February, a claim the Iranian Army subsequently denied, making Thursday'sremarks his most prominent public statement since that denial.
