Rising Tensions as Iran Warns U.S. Amid Diplomatic Push in Pakistan

 


Iran has issued a stark warning to the United States, accusing Washington of preparing a ground assault even as regional powers gather in Pakistan to seek a diplomatic resolution to the escalating conflict. 

Iran Signals Readiness for Confrontation

Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf stated that Tehran is prepared to respond decisively if U.S. troops deploy on Iranian soil. He accused the U.S. of sending mixed messages—publicly discussing negotiations while allegedly planning a land invasion.
