Pollak said in a conversation with protesters, which was broadcast on Channel 14: "Now the army is going to make an even bigger mistake.

He said: "I met with the IRGC, sent them letters, explained to them exactly the danger. There are professors at the academy who tell them this. This will be a cry for generations... We are establishing the Revolutionary Guards with our own hands.".
