On June 2, 2026, a senior general from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) asserted that Iran possesses additional military capabilities that have yet to be disclosed.
This statement comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and Western powers, particularly the US and NATO, as diplomatic discussions appear to be stalling.
The influence of hardliners within the IRGC, particularly those associated with acting commander Ahmad Vahidi, seems to be shaping Iran's military strategy and readiness.
