Iran has brought the “most armed army in the history of the world to its knees,” IRGC commander Major-General Ahmad Vahidi has said, Al Jazeera reports.

Vahidi’s comments were contained in an open letter to IRGC members and other security forces, published in the military publication Sepah News.

The commander is one of several military leaders newly appointed by Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei in a major defence cabinet reshuffle in the past week.
