Baqeri made the remarks talking about the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps' (IRGC) proportionate reciprocity operation carried out early on Wednesday and targeted the US airbase of Ain al-Assad in Anbar province in western Iraq in response to the US Jan 3 assassination of the IRGC Qods Force commander, Lt Gen Qasem Soleimani.
About the IRGC operation, Gen Baqeri said it was just a small part of the capabilities of the Islamic Republic's Armed Forces.
Today, it is time for the wicked US officials to understand the Islamic Republic power and opt for a principled method to make its terrorist army leave the region.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, reacting to Gen Soleimani's martyrdom, stressed on January 4 that Iran reserves the right to take revenge by proportionate military action, and will do it.
