IRGC says Iran, not US, will decide war’s end

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Tuesday said Tehran, not Washington, will determine when the war ends, rejecting comments by US  President Donald Trump about the conflict’s timeline.

IRGC spokesperson Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini described Trump’s statements as “lies” and accused him of trying to claim false military achievements.

Speaking to Iran’s Tasnim news agency, Naeini said Iran’s missile capabilities remain intact and that attacks are continuing with larger numbers of projectiles.

“We know that your ammunition is about to run out and that you are looking for an honourable way out of the war. Why don’t you tell the truth to the American people? Trump doesn’t want Americans to know that all US military infrastructure in the Persian Gulf region has been destroyed,” he said.
