Iran president warns Israel against retaliation in fiery Army Day speech

The Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi spoke two hours ago but his words were not broadcast live.
What we’ve seen over the past few minutes is a videotaped feed of the president’s speech, in which he reiterated Iran’s successful campaign against Israel in the “True Promise” operation on Sunday.
The Iranian president also said should there be the smallest attempt by Israel to attack Iranian soil it will be met with a “fierce and swift response”. The president went on to say there is no need for a foreign troop presence in the region, and countries in the Middle East are able to defend themselves.
Iran’s National Army Day began in 1921 as a result of a military coup that overthrew the Qajar dynasty. Since then, Iran has held an annual parade to show its forces are ready and usually unveils military hardware.
The event in the past was held outside of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini’s mausoleum in Tehran. But because of security concerns, it was moved to a military base east of the capital this year.
