Iran to conduct new military drills despite US warnings

Tehran: Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guard is to conduct military drills next week, a senior commander announced on February 18, despite warnings from the United States and fresh sanctions over a ballistic missile test.

“The manoeuvres called ‘Grand Prophet 11’ will start From February 20 and last three days,” General Mohammad Pakpour, commander of the force’s ground units, told a news conference.

He said rockets would be used without specifying which kind.

In early February, Iran conducted drills involving short-range missiles at a time of heightened tensions with the United States.

The Islamic republic said the exercises were aimed at demonstrating Iran’s “complete preparedness to deal with the threats” and “humiliating sanctions” from Washington.

The 11th prophet, the 11th, I forget, there's another word they use. It'll come to me later. This is their prophecy and why some are paranoid about them. I'm not so sure.
