Iranian army chief Amir Hatami said forces are fully ready to respond to any attack amid US naval deployments led by the USS Abraham Lincoln strike group.
- On Saturday, Amir Hatami warned the United States and Israel against an attack, saying Iran's forces are at full defensive readiness after U.S. deployments in the Gulf.
- On Saturday, Centcom said the IRGC would hold a two-day live-fire naval exercise in the Strait of Hormuz and warned against unsafe behaviour near U.S. forces, amid domestic unrest that began on December 28.
- At a meeting in the army's War Command Room, Hatami warned `If the enemy makes a mistake, without a doubt it will endanger its own security, the security of the region, and the security of the Zionist regime` and said Iran's nuclear technology 'cannot be eliminated, even if scientists are martyred.'
