Iran Warns of “Severe” Retaliation Amid Escalating Tensions

            Iran threatens ‘harsh, regrettable’ response to any aggression after claiming full-scale war with the US, Israel.

Iran has issued a sharp warning that any act of aggression against the country will trigger a “harsh” and “regret‑inducing” response, signaling a hardening stance as regional tensions continue to rise. President Masoud Pezeshkian delivered the message publicly, stressing that Iran will not hesitate to defend itself against external threats.

The warning followed renewed statements from U.S. leadership suggesting that Washington would respond forcefully if Iran attempts to rebuild elements of its missile or nuclear programs. Iranian officials quickly pushed back, accusing the United States of escalating rhetoric and attempting to intimidate the country.

Senior advisers in Tehran echoed the president’s remarks, emphasizing that Iran views any military strike or covert action as a direct attack on its sovereignty. The exchange has fueled concerns among analysts who fear that heightened rhetoric on both sides increases the risk of miscalculation.

For now, Iran’s message remains firm: any strike or perceived act of aggression will be met with a powerful and immediate response.
