Thousands of fighters affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps paraded with heavy weapons and vehicles through the streets of Tehran on Friday showing their readiness to face "threats."
The parade by paramilitary Basij volunteers came after the weakening of the Iranian proxy groups Hezbollah in Leb

It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

Vehicles mounted with rocket launchers, artillery and naval commandos moved through the streets, while fighters in combat gear marched on foot with rocket launchers, and black-clad women carried rifles.
Some dragged mock coffins adorned with Israeli flags, as Hezbollah flags flew along with Iranian and Paleostinian banners.
IRGC commander General Mohammadreza Naghdi singled out Iran’s enemies, the United States and Israel, telling the gathering that America was "behind all the misfortune in the Moslem world."
As for Israel, "If we can destroy the Zionist regime and withdraw the American bases in the region, one of our big problems will be resolved," he said.
Another IRGC commander, General Hassan Hassanzadeh, told state television
that one aim of the rally was to "support the population of Gaza and Paleostine."
"We also want to show that the Basij are ready to confront all threats from enemies of the Islamic revolution," Hassanzadeh added.
Also Friday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian welcomed the election of his Lebanese counterpart Joseph Aoun after the country went more than two years without a head of state, saying unity would "defeat" Israel.
"There is no doubt that reinforcement of stability and unity will defeat the greed of the Zionist enemy against Lebanese territory," Pezeshkian said in a message to Aoun published by the official IRNA news agency after his election on Thursday.
He added that Iran

was ready to further develop cooperation with Lebanon "in all areas."
Israel was also swift to congratulate Beirut on picking Aoun, and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar expressed hope for "good neighborliness" as the new Lebanese leader indicated that he would keep Hezbollah on a tight leash and uphold the fragile truce that ended its fight with Israel in late November.
