  • IRGC forces remain on maximum combat readiness, warning their "hands are on the trigger" if the truce is breached.
  • The statement projects military strength to prevent adversaries from exploiting the fragile two-week ceasefire.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a stern warning on Wednesday, asserting that its military forces remain at the highest levels of combat readiness despite the recently announced temporary ceasefire agreement between Washington and Tehran.

Forces remain on high alert

In a statement, the IRGC declared that its fighters' "hands remain on the trigger."

The military force emphasized the complete readiness of its missile and defense systems to deliver a strict and immediate response if the enemy - referring to the United States and 'Israel' - commits any new field miscalculations or breaches the established terms of the de-escalation agreement.

Analysts evaluate deterrence strategy

Military observers indicate this rhetoric is carefully designed to project unwavering strength, sending a clear message that Tehran's acceptance of the truce does not equate to military weakness. 

Furthermore, the statements act as a preemptive deterrence measure intended to prevent any opposing party from attempting to exploit the two-week ceasefire period to secure strategic field gains outside the framework of ongoing negotiations.

Warning follows American statements

The Iranian military warning arrives just hours after pointed remarks from US Vice President JD Vance, recently described the current truce as highly "fragile" and warned that US President Trump's patience might run out. 

The swift exchange of international rhetoric highlights the intensely volatile political atmosphere that persists despite the temporary suspension of active military operations.
