By Staff, Agencies 

The Iranian Army stressed the important role that a high turnout in the upcoming elections would play in foiling the enemy’s plots and supporting the Armed Forces.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the Army called on all Iranian people to take part in the June 18 elections to frustrate the enemies’ plots and sedition.

“While the adversaries have employed all of their media capacities to dissuade Iranians from voting in the upcoming elections, the Army staff and their families will once again reaffirm their allegiance to the Islamic Republic by casting their ballots,” it mentioned.

The statement reminded the revolutionary and insightful people of Iran that their massive turnout in the Friday elections will thwart hundreds of plots against Iran and provide sturdy support for the Armed Forces.

Slated for June 18, the 13th presidential election in Iran will be held simultaneously with council and midterm parliamentary and Assembly of Experts elections.

More than 59,310,000 Iranians are eligible to vote this year.
