US President Donald Trump has said the Iran war will end "very quickly". But Tehran has responded to Trump's comments about ending the war, saying Iran will "determine" when the war will end.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has insisted that the equation and the future of the region are now in the hands of Tehran's forces.
The IRGC made this statement in response to Trump's statement that the Iran conflict would end soon.

"We will determine the end of the war," the IRGC said in a statement.
"The equation and future of this region now rests in the hands of our armed forces; American forces will not end the war," it added.
Trump has said a war with Iran could be short-lived, but he also warned that the war could escalate if Iran's new supreme leader-elect disrupts global oil supplies.
Hours later, the US commander-in-chief posted on social media, saying, "If Iran does anything that shuts off the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, they will hit the United States twenty times harder than they have hit it so far."
The Iran war has disrupted oil and gas supplies to global markets and fuel prices have risen across America, the report said.
Meanwhile, Trump also discussed the war and other issues with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday.
Putin's foreign affairs adviser Yuri Ushakov said that after conversations with Gulf leaders and Iranian President Masoud Peshmerga, Putin expressed some ideas about a quick political and diplomatic settlement of the conflict.
