Tehran has warned Washington of a decisive response to any new strikes: if US forces hit two or three Iranian targets, Iran will strike 20 US targets. This was stated by the official representative of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Hossein Mohebi, as reported by infohub.kz.
According to RIA Novosti, citing the Fars agency, after each attack on Iranian targets, Tehran will consider up to 10 American targets for retaliatory strikes. "If the enemy strikes 2-3 of our targets, we will decisively respond against 20 targets (of the USA - ed.)," Mohebi emphasized.
The IRGC representative also outlined conditions for resolving the conflict: the US must completely cease hostilities, abandon new threats, unblock $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets, lift the blockade of Yemen, and not interfere in Iran's nuclear and missile programs. Additionally, Tehran demands the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Lebanon.
Earlier, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) reported the destruction of five Iranian oil tankers and published corresponding video. In response, the IRGC announced strikes on 20 vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, calling it a reaction to the US attack.
