Iranian military forces are conducting extensive drills, aimed at preparing for possible attacks on its nuclear facilities.
The exercises, led by Brigadier Gen. Mohammad-Nazar Azimi, feature new weapons and equipment while testing the Basij paramilitary forces.
Analysts suggest these drills are a show of power in response to shifting dynamics in the Middle East and pressures from Israel and Western nations.
The drills, part of the "Great Prophet 19" exercise, include a simulated aerial assault specifically targeting Iran's Natanz nuclear site.
Concerns arise over the implications of President-elect Trump resuming office, potentially leading to increased economic sanctions and military actions.
