The Iranian army's spokesperson said Sunday that the United States may be seeking an exit strategy from the war, if Israel permits it. According to a report by Israeli journalist Sapir Lipkin (N12), the spokesperson also warned that under pressure from the 'Zionist regime,' a large-scale aerial attack or ground operation could be launched, and that a ground operation would significantly increase American casualties.
The Iranian army's spokesperson said Sunday that the United States may be seeking an exit strategy from the war, if Israel permits it, according to a report by Israeli journalist Sapir Lipkin (N12). The spokesperson also warned that under pressure from the 'Zionist regime,' a large-scale aerial attack or ground operation could be launched, and that a ground operation would significantly increase American casualties.
The statement outlines three possible scenarios: the US seeking an exit, an Israeli-driven aerial campaign, or a ground operation. The spokesperson characterized the ground operation option as particularly dangerous for American forces, warning that the 'level of harm' to Americans would increase significantly.
The remarks come amid elevated US-Iran tensions, with the US maintaining military readiness for further strikes on Iran while also signaling diplomatic engagement, as previously reported. The Iranian spokesperson's scenarios are speculative and not based on specific intelligence, and the claims cannot be independently verified.
