Top Iranian military commander Mohammad-Ali Jafari has announced new IRGC plans to enhance the efficiency of its missile division.

"An independent command may soon be established to strengthen the structure and improve the activity of our missile division," said the IRGC major general in Tehran on Sunday.

Jafari added that the new IRGC missile command would be established only after the approval of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

Regarding the proposed IRGC restructuring, he said the move should be considered a 'natural procedure' aimed at using financial and human resources in a way that can maximize efficiency.
