Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi warned that any attacks on his country will be met with a “powerful and decisive” response.
“Our defense doctrine is clear: eye for an eye,” he said in a post on X. “Any aggression against Iran, including our infrastructure, will compel a powerful and decisive response.”
He added that those who assist and support such strikes will also become “legitimate targets” of Tehran.
Our defense doctrine is clear: eye for an eye.
Any aggression against Iran, including our infrastructure, will compel a powerful and decisive response.
Those who contribute to such aggression, whatever the kind of support, will also be considered as legitimate targets.
