IRGC deputy commander for operations General Abbas Nilforooshan said the new EOD systems will enhance security at the borders and other sensitive sites, considering that the Israeli government has adopted a new approach after disappointment with a hard war against Iran and has opted for battles in “grey and security” conditions. He also unveiled plans to employ divisions of front-line robots for the ground combat sphere.

According to the commander, the Islamic Republic does not rely on imported security equipment, since hostile states either do not sell them to Iran or manipulate the instruments and reduce their sensitivity to be able to transfer explosives into Iran.
