During the retaliatory strike against Israel, Iran used only outdated missile weapons, thus Tehran forced—with minimal effort—Israel and the armed forces of Western countries that came to its aid to use maximum measures. Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Aerospace Force  of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) of Iran, announced this on Thursday, Tasnim reported.

"We attacked Israel using outdated weapons and minimal resources. (…). By making minimal efforts on our part, we forced Israel and the Western camp to use maximum means," stressed the head of the elite units of the Iranian armed forces.
