Iran has announced large monetary rewards for individuals who capture or neutralize US military personnel who have invaded the country's territory. One.uz reports this.

According to information provided by the Iranian state news agency, this decision was made by the country's defense system based on numerous citizen Contentsappeals. The official statement says that material incentives in the amount of tens of thousands of dollars are intended for individuals involved in the capture of foreign military personnel.

As emphasized by Iranian army commander Major General Amir Hotami, if US military personnel illegally cross the Iranian border, any person who captures or neutralizes one of them will be awarded a reward of $30,000. Interestingly, the military leadership has set the reward amount twice as high, i.e., $60,000, for similar actions carried out by women.

So far, specific mechanisms regarding which sources these payments will come from and how they will be implemented have not been disclosed. Reatialing military equipment and weapons General Hotami also put forward separate proposals for not only capturing personnel but also for sur चीजोंing weapons belonging to US military personnel.

According to him, weapons seized from American military personnel may be purchased by the state at twice the market price or replaced with new types of weapons. It is said that these measures are being implemented to strengthen the country's defense potential and encourage the patriotic spirit of the population.
This statement comes at a time when political and military tensions between Washington and Tehran have reached their peak. Iran has previously expressed sharp responses to the movements of US troops in the region several times.

Despite this, there is currently no confirmed information regarding the presence of US ground troops in Iranian territory. According to experts, such statements are mostly negotiating of a propaganda nature and are assessed as a psychological response to external pressure.
