[Iran’s Supreme Leader requires military operations to “pay more attention to rapid response”] November 9, according to a report by the Islamic Republic of Iran News Agency on the 9th, Iranian military spokesman Mohammad Akrami-Niya said that the Iranian armed forces are implementing the recent instructions of the Supreme Leader. In the future, military operations will pay more attention to rapid response and strike effects, and will no longer be restricted by geographical scope. Akrami-Niya said that the focus of the Supreme Leader’s recent instructions includes “rapid response” and put forward two new requirements: “effective” and “no geographical restrictions”. These instructions have become the basis for the actions of the Iranian Armed Forces. Iran's previous military doctrine was based on defense and deterrence, but it is now shifting towards an offensive orientation.
