Iran has mobilized the majority of its ground force units along the nation's borders, with a significant focus on the Makran coast situated in the Gulf of Oman, as tensions escalate between the Islamic Republic and the United States, according to Fars news agency.

Breaking news: Iran's Army, comprising 420,000 troops, reports that the vast majority of its ground force units are now positioned along the country's borders, with a concentrated deployment on the Makran coast in the Gulf of Oman, including special forces, rapid response, mechanized, and artillery formations. Iran has warned that US ground forces may attempt to invade the country through its southern coastal cities, prompting the heavy deployment along the Makran coast to bolster defenses in the strategically vital southern region.
The reported troop movements come amidst rising tensions in the conflict with the US. Former President Donald Trump recently stated that he is approaching "a major turning point in the war with Iran" and that he has "a big decision coming up." In response to the heightened situation, Iran has placed all its armed forces on Code 100, the highest alert level, on Thursday night.
