IRGC Thwarts Zionist Act of Sabotage at Fordow
TEHRAN – The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has arrested members of a network planning to sabotage Iran’s underground Fordow nuclear plant under the Zionist regime’s direction.
The plot involved an agent paid by Israel attempting to approach a person working with advanced IR-6 centrifuges at the plant, a Monday report said.
The agent was provided with secure communications and paid in cash and cryptocurrencies to approach the plant employee using a contact at a cover company in Hong Kong as a mediator who was in reality an Zionist spy officer.
After approaching the plant employee, all wages are exchanged in cash and digital currency so that no traces remain.
The Zionist operative then contacts the plant employee through the agent and orders software as he gradually moves to approach him himself.
The plant employee continues to cooperate after knowing about the real identity of the Zionist spy, but that is when all their moves are being monitored by the IRGC’s intelligence arm.
The IRGC Nuclear Command was able to prevent one of the major sabotages of the country’s nuclear facilities in cooperation with the IRGC’s Counterintelligence Command.
The sabotage attack was set to happen before Nowruz which marks the end of the Iranian year on March 20.
Iran’s nuclear program has been the subject of sabotage for more than a decade. Several Iranian scientists have also been assassinated by Zionists.
IRGC has recently established a command center tasked with protecting the country’s nuclear facilities.
The existence of the newly-formed center was officially confirmed for the first time in a report earlier on Monday that announced the arrest of a team planning sabotage acts at the Fordow Nuclear Facility.
Earlier this year and following several acts of sabotage at Iran’s nuclear facilities, Head of the Passive Defense Organization Brigadier General Gholamreza Jalali announced that a command center for nuclear defense and security would be formed.
At the time Brigadier General Jalali said that the formation of such a center would help eliminate all previous faults and weaknesses, making the whole system invulnerable.
IRGC Unveils Smart
Submarines
IRGC has unveiled smart submarines and delivered them to its naval forces.
The vessels were unveiled, along with new missiles and speedboats, at a ceremony attended by IRGC Chief Commander Major General Hussein Salami and IRGC Navy Commander Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri in Iran’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas.
General Salami said the addition of the new smart submarines has completed the capabilities of the IRGC Navy.
He praised the Iranian armed forces for their latest achievements as the country is targeted by stringent sanctions.
The new missiles delivered to the IRGC Navy boast enhanced range and maneuverability, stronger explosive and destructive power, and withstand electronic warfare.
The new generation of speedboats can travel at up to 95 knots and are able to fire different missiles and rockets.
Over the past decades, Iran has developed its defense industry and
can currently manufacture different light and heavy weapons ranging from missiles with pinpoint precision, to mortars, torpedoes, tanks and submarines.
Geometry of IRGC’s Power Perfected
The IRGC chief Major General Hussein Salami said the new methods that Iran has employed to boost its capabilities and the new military gear at the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps’ disposal have completed the IRGC Navy’s geometry of power.
After unveiling a series of new military watercraft and missiles that joined the IRGC Navy in Iran’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas on Tuesday, Major General Salami said it is highly important to rejuvenate the components of power.
Highlighting the significance of new methods for boosting the Islamic government’s power, the commander said the joining of smart subsurface equipment to the IRGC Navy has completed the geometry of its power on shore, off shore and below the water.
The top commander said the world’s arrogant powers understand only the language of force, which is why Iran has to enhance its power to protect its security in all fields.
He also hailed the Iranian scientists’ success in enhancing the country’s capabilities by sending satellites into space and manufacturing smart subsurface systems, which has helped cut off the hands of the aggressors and enemies.
The IRGC combat forces were furnished with a large number of pieces of equipment, including missile systems and vessels with special operational capabilities.
The new speedboats delivered to the IRGC can reach a velocity of 95 knots, launch missiles and rockets, and carry out reconnaissance missions.
The IRGC Navy was also furnished with new missiles, whose range has been extended and which are maneuverable and used in the electronic warfare.
