Highlights
  • Warning against “error of judgment”
  • A response that exceeded expectations

Tehran, Iran – In a firm and explicit response to the recent threats made by US President Donald Trump, the Iranian military leadership issued a strongly worded warning.

They confirmed its readiness to turn all American interests in the region into a battlefield, highlighting Tehran strategic determination in the face of threats.

This would occur in the event that the country is subjected to any aggression—a scenario Iranian officials in Tehran have repeatedly cautioned against.

Warning against “error of judgment”

Ali Abdollahi, commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, stated in a press conference today in Tehran that decisive measures would be taken.

that any attack targeting Iran would make all US bases in the region “legitimate targets” for the Iranian armed forces.

He added, in a stern tone, “The United States is fully aware of the consequences of any miscalculation.”

The Iranian military commander emphasized that the response would not be limited to military sites

but would encompass a broader range of US interests, according to security officials in Tehran.

He explained, “Any attack on the territory, security, and interests of the Iranian nation will immediately,

as a first step, transform all US interests, bases,

and centers of influence into legitimate, decisive, and available targets for our forces based in Tehran and beyond.”

A response that exceeded expectations

In a message directed at Washington and Tel Aviv, the commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Air Base asserted

that Iran’s offensive capabilities are capable of shocking its adversaries, as often discussed in Tehran.

He stated, “The Islamic Republic’s response will be swifter, more precise, and more destructive than America and Israel can imagine.”

These statements come at a time of unprecedented American military buildup in the region

and reports of aircraft carriers heading toward the Gulf in close proximity to Tehran’s spheres of influence.

This is signaling a dangerous escalation of the conflict between Tehran and the Trump administration. The situation could transcend diplomatic rhetoric and erupt into open confrontation.
