“Dealing firmly with terrorist elements and groupings is on the permanent agenda of the IRGC’s Ground Force, and we will firmly counter terrorists in any place that they might be present,” he said.

He also called on Kurdish tribes in northern Iraq to stay away from terrorist elements as their bases will be targeted by Iran wherever they are.
