TEHRAN- A high-ranking commander within the Iranian Army has underscored the importance of directing the new generation’s attention toward content creation in the domain of Sacred Defense.

During his visit to the 35th Tehran International Book Fair (TIBF), Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, Deputy Chief of the Iranian Army for Coordination, emphasized the need to impart values to the youth through diverse means.

Admiral Sayyari stressed the significance of ensuring that the current generation comprehends the journey towards Iran's stability and authority. 

Reflecting on the bravery and sacrifices made by Iranian youth during the Sacred Defense era, he pointed to the loss of 2,500 martyrs who laid down their lives to defend the nation.

The Sacred Defense refers to the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s.

Addressing attendees at the book fair, Sayyari posed a critical question: Are today's youth cognizant of the challenges faced by the Islamic Republic, including threats to its sovereignty and national security aimed at undermining its revolutionary values?

In conclusion, the admiral emphasized the necessity of implementing forward-looking strategies to engage more young people in content production related to the Sacred Defense.
