Iran Warns of Full-Scale Response if US Strikes Continue

A senior military advisor to Iran's supreme leader has warned that Iran is prepared to launch full-scale offensive operations if the United States continues its strikes for another two to three days.

Major General Mohsen Rezaei, speaking to the Iranian news agency IRIB, said Iran would no longer limit itself to retaliatory, like-for-like responses. He stated, 'No political border will be safe,' indicating a potential escalation beyond current tit-for-tat exchanges.

The statement comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and the United States, with both sides conducting military actions in the region. Rezaei's warning suggests a shift in Iran's strategy if the situation persists.

It remains unclear whether this represents an official shift in policy or a rhetorical warning. The United States has not publicly responded to the remarks.
