Iran Warns of Faster, More Intense Response Following U.S. Strikes on Tankers
Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf warned the United States that any future attacks on Iran's interests or security will provoke a faster, more intense, and more painful response. This statement follows recent U.S. strikes that disabled three Iranian oil tankers in the Gulf, which were reportedly targeted after two U.S. Navy ships faced attacks from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Qalibaf emphasized that the rules of engagement have changed, signaling a shift away from proportionate responses.
