Iran's parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on Sunday that while the US has been publicly declaring it is engaging in diplomatic efforts to end war, it is simultaneously "secretly planning a ground attack".
"The enemy publicly sends messages of negotiation and dialogue while secretly planning a ground attack," he said in a statement carried by the official IRNA news agency. "Our men are waiting for the arrival of the American soldiers on the ground to set them on fire and punish their regional allies once and for all," he added.
