Iran's Khamenei Orders Immediate Military Response Without Geographical Limits to ThreatsPreviousNext

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has directed the country's armed forces to prepare an immediate and effective response to any renewed military or terrorist attacks, without geographical restrictions. He ordered an update to Iran's target list to include all US and Israeli assets, emphasizing that Iran will determine the timing and conditions for ending any conflict. The directive comes amid heightened tensions following earlier US-Israeli strikes and ongoing diplomatic efforts to prevent further escalation in the region.
