Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), Mohammad-Ali Ja'fari, said Saturday the United States cannot dare to attack the Islamic Republic as it is fully aware of Iran’s defence power and the nation’s determination.

According to IRNA, addressing a gathering today, he said the IRGC’s preparedness “is at its highest level.”

The IRGC Chief said sanctions and restrictions against Iran had no impact, and have proved a blessing in disguise by resulting in further self-sufficiency efforts by the Iranian nation.
