A Million 'Combatants' Said To Be Mobilizing in Iran for a Ground War

Iranians seem to be girding for a fight, particularly in the face of reports that the U.S. intends to begin ground operations against Iran in the very near future. An informed military source told Tasnim on March 26, that with the growing speculation about the possibility of a “historical folly” by the U.S. in launching a ground invasion on the southern front of Iran, a wave of enthusiasm has emerged among Iranian ground fighters to create an “historical hell” for the Americans on Iranian soil. The source claimed that 1 million “combatants” have been mobilized, and in addition, there has been a massive influx of requests from Iranian youth directed toward the centers of Basij, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), and the Army, to also participate in this battle.
