Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that Iran will respond firmly to any attack on its territory or infrastructure.

In a statement posted on social media, Araghchi said Iran would give a strong and decisive response to any attack. He stressed that the country would protect its territory and national interests. He also repeated Iran’s position on defending its infrastructure.
The Iranian foreign minister said any party that supports or assists such an attack would also become a legitimate target. He made the remarks in response to recent statements by President Trump. However, he did not name any specific country.
Earlier, Trump warned that Iran would face serious consequences. He also said military operations against Iran would continue. According to reports, the US president had issued instructions to the US Central Command three days earlier and later repeated the statement on social media.

He also warned that locations linked to US interests could become targets.
The exchange of warnings reflects the growing strain between the two countries. Regional observers continue to monitor the situation closely as concerns over further escalation increase. Diplomatic efforts remain under pressure amid the ongoing tensions.
The Iran US tensions continue to rise as both sides exchange strong warnings. Iranian officials insist they will respond to any aggression, while the United States maintains pressure through its public statements and military posture.
