Iranian Foreign Ministry vows 'resolute and decisive' response to US attacks

The Iranian Foreign Ministry declared that its response to the American attacks will be 'resolute and decisive,' according to a statement.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry issued a statement early Wednesday (01:22 Jerusalem) vowing a 'resolute and decisive' response to the American attacks. The declaration follows a warning from Iran at 00:54 Jerusalem that the US had made a 'big mistake' and that the response would be 'sharp and disproportionate,' as The Zioneer reported. The US has been conducting strikes on Iranian targets in recent weeks, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warning of a severe campaign against Iranian facilities (The Zioneer, Jun 10). Iran has repeatedly threatened retaliation, including from the IRGC and the military. The current statement reinforces Tehran's posture of defiance without specifying a timeline or target.
