Ruhollah Karehi, the director of a religious seminary in Iran, has called for Tehran to escalate its military confrontation with the United States by striking American territory with ballistic missiles, according to the source affiliated with the 301 platform.

Karehi argued that instead of targeting US bases in the Middle East, Iran should directly attack the US homeland. The statement was posted on Tuesday morning and adds to the chorus of Iranian hardliners urging a more aggressive posture.

The call follows weeks of direct US-Iran military confrontation, including multiple ballistic missile barrages by Iran targeting US bases and Israeli territory, as well as American strikes on Iranian positions, as previously reported by The Zioneer.
