In response to US President Donald Trump’s confirmation of successful strikes on Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, Iran has condemned the attack as a gross violation of international law, calling it a “savage assault” and blaming both the US and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for what it terms “complicity” through inaction.
Iran’s official statement, released by its state media, blasted the strikes as “lawless acts rooted in the logic of the jungle” and demanded global condemnation and support for its “legitimate rights.”
Meanwhile, state TV anchors and officials have escalated threats, declaring:
“Every US civilian and military personnel in the region is now a legitimate target.”
Another presenter directly addressed Trump, warning:
“The battle has just begun, Mr. Trump! Now you talk of peace? We will deal with you in a way that makes you understand the consequences of recklessness.”
This wave of retaliation rhetoric signals a potential widening of the conflict beyond conventional battlefields, with possible implications for US assets across the Middle East and beyond.
The global community is now bracing for a possible asymmetric or proxy response from Tehran, as fears of an uncontrollable regional war continue to grow.
