Iran is fully prepared for a prolonged war and ready to unveil\nadvanced weapons that have not yet been used in the conflict, a\nspokesman for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini said Iran\u2019s\nenemies would suffer painful blows in the next wave of attacks to\ncome.<\/p>\n
\u201cIran\u2019s initiatives and new weapons are on their way,\u201d he said,\nquoted by Al Jazeera on Friday (6 March 2026). \u201cThese technologies have\nnot been deployed at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n
Naeini said that Iran is now more prepared than during the twelve-day\nwar launched last year by the United States and Israel. He described the\nongoing military confrontation as a \u201choly and legitimate war.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, The Guardian reported that Iran-backed militias across the\nMiddle East are continuing to intensify attacks on Israel, the US, and\ntheir allies. The strikes are in retaliation for joint US-Israel\noperations underway against Tehran.<\/p>\n
The conflict involves new armed actors, threatening broader chaos and\nviolence.<\/p>\n
Israel and the US have targeted networks of Iran-backed militant\ngroups, with Iraq emerging as a principal front in this new\nconfrontation.<\/p>\n
Militias in Iraq have launched dozens of attacks since the war began\non Saturday, targeting Israel and US bases in Jordan and in Iraq\nitself.<\/p>\n
In recent days they have also targeted infrastructure of the\nKurdish-Iran opposition group based in the predominantly Kurdish north\nof Iraq, which has its own administration.<\/p>\n
Israel and the US are seeking to weaken pro-Iran militias in Iraq\nthrough air strikes and ground special forces operations, according to\nanalysts and former regional intelligence officials with broad\nknowledge.<\/p>\n
Since the US-led invasion in 2003, Iraq has become a theatre of proxy\nwarfare between the US, its allies, and Iran. But current national\nleaders have sought to avoid involvement in this new conflict.<\/p>\n
The pro-Iran militias are recruited from Iraq\u2019s Shia majority and\nfollow orders from senior IRGC officers.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, as a sign of intensifying proxy warfare across the\nregion, officials in Washington hinted that they were considering\nmobilising Iranian Kurds. However, several Kurdish figures rejected the\nplan.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/iran-ready-for-prolonged-war-set-to-unveil-new-weapons-not-yet-deployed-1772787929", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
