Iran Army to hold “Zolfaqar-1401” drills as of tonight

Tehran, IRNA - Deputy Commander of Army for Coordination Affairs Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari has announced that the Iranian Army is to hold a joint war game dubbed “Zolfaqar-1401” as of Thursday night (December 29).

The drills will be staged at Jask and to the east of Strait of Hormuz in southern Iran and will be extended to 10 degrees north of Indian Ocean, the commander said at a news conference on the Army maneuver.

Ground, air, and naval forces of the Army will attend the joint maneuver to show self-confidence, power and sustainable security.

The commander referred to upgrading the forces’ skill in carrying operations in special environments as one of the main objectives of the drills.

He underlined that the Army maneuver is aimed at reminding the regional countries that the peace will be brought to the region only through regional capacities and unity.

History has proved that the ultra-regional players are after war and insecurity, he underlined.

Then, the commander stressed that the exit of extra-regional countries, including the US and the UK, from the region will ensure stability.

Zolfaqar-1401 is planned to show ineffectiveness of the arms embargo against the Islamic Republic Iran.
