Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi has warned that Iran will “stand against” any attacks on Pickaxe Mountain, the reported site of an Iranian nuclear facility, according to the Fars news agency.

“We will stand with full readiness against an American attack, and the experience that America has previously gained from the nature of our response — and which has, in fact, prevented America from achieving its objectives — will be repeated for America once again,” Mohebbi adds.
