[Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs: The so-called "Iron Gate" plan of the United States is doomed to fail] On November 9th, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bagaei responded to the United States' "Iron Gate" plan on the 9th local time, saying that the essence of the so-called "Iron Gate" plan was concocted by those in the U.S. military who were trying to excuse their own failures. "People know what these people are doing and this plan is bound to fail." The U.S. Central Command posted on social media on the 7th that Commander Cooper of Central Command had ordered the formation of a task force called "Iron Gate." The task force will collaborate with other U.S. government agencies to prevent Iran from using land routes and other methods to transport advanced weapons and other materials across the border. Task Force Iron Gate consists of approximately 20 civilian and military personnel and is headquartered in Tampa, Florida. In response, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman Mukhibi responded on the 8th that the "Iron Gate" plan was "just a word game." The United States cannot achieve its purpose of exerting huge economic pressure on Iran through this plan, and the Iranian economy will not collapse. (CCTV News)
