Iran's government warned that it would target American military bases in the region if the US continues its 'aggression,' according to i24NEWS. The threat comes as the US has conducted two consecutive nights of strikes on Iranian military targets.
Iran has threatened to strike American military bases in the region if the United States continues its 'aggression,' according to a report by i24NEWS. The warning, attributed to Iranian officials, comes amid a sustained US aerial campaign against Iranian military infrastructure.
As The Zioneer reported, the US military struck more than 90 targets in Iran on the second consecutive night of operations, and the New York Times reported that over 170 targets have been hit over two days. Iran's Health Ministry reported 14 killed and 78 wounded in strikes across five provinces. The US has said the strikes targeted air defenses, missile sites, and drone positions.
It remains unclear how Iran would operationalize the threat, and whether the US has altered its posture in the region. The statement follows earlier Iranian warnings of retaliation.
