The coordinated coordinated air strikes of the United States on key nuclear facilities – Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan – lit a new wave of hostility, and the Iranian state media said that “every American citizen and soldier in the region” is now a “legitimate goal”.
The remarks came for hours after President Donald Trump allowed a highly profile attack in the Midnight Hammer operation, signaling the main escalation in Israel’s US tension.
State media problems with sharp warning
During broadcasting on IRIB, Iranian state television network, the commentator warned against retaliation according to more reports and said, “You started and finish it.”
The map showing the main US military base in the Middle East was broadcast simultaneously, including the facility in Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and SAE. The warning continued: “The battle just started, Mr. Trump! Now you’re talking about peace? We’ll deal with you in a way that will make you understand the consequences of ruthlessness.”
The Iranian government condemns strikes
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi took to x (Formerly Twitter) to issue condemnation and threat of retaliation: “The United States, a permanent member of the UN Security Council, committed a serious violation of the UN Charter, International Law and NPT by attacking Iranian Peace Installation.”
He added: “Iran reserves all the ways to prevent your sovereignty, interest and people.”
The nuclear spots hit
Iran acknowledged that the places of enrichment of nuclear in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan were hit. Despite the Iranian claim for the “peaceful development of nuclear substances” according to the IAEA, the equipment enriched Uranus at the levels near the class of weapons.
Trump warns Iran: retaliation will bring additional strikes
In the middle of the growing concerns of the wider regional war, Trump’s administration signaled the willingness to return to the negotiating table with Iran. “We will meet directly,” Foreign Minister Marco Rubio said in an interview with CBS. Defense Minister Pete HegSeth has repeated sentiment and told reporters that the US “is not looking for war”.
Tehran, however, rejected this prelude and said that the diplomacy window had closed and reaffirmed its right to self -defense.
President Donald Trump warned that any Iranian retaliation against the US forces would cause further strikes. With tens of thousands of US units located in the Middle East, Trump released a sharp ultimatum: “Either there will be peace or there will be a tragedy for Iran.” The strikes were carried out without prior approval of the congress.
