Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has threatened a swift and powerful response to any threat against the country, stating that such retaliation would not be geographically restricted. These remarks were made following a meeting with senior military commanders amid heightened regional security tensions.
Khamenei instructed the updating of Iran's "target bank" to include "material and immaterial assets and properties" belonging to the United States and Israel. He emphasized the need to bolster intelligence and military capabilities. The Supreme Leader also stressed the importance of strengthening the military intelligence system, developing defensive capacities, and enhancing what he described as "spiritual resilience and the spirit of jihad," while also addressing the needs of the armed forces.
These statements were issued after Khamenei met with the Commander of the Iranian Armed Forces, Ali Abdollahi, the Commander of the Revolutionary Guard, Ahmad Vahidi, and the Army Commander, Amir Hatami. The reports indicated Khamenei also urged reinforcing military intelligence and defensive capabilities.
Iranian officials have maintained a hardline stance, rejecting external pressure despite reports of diplomatic progress. Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the Speaker of Parliament, stated that Iran's conditions have been repeatedly clarified to mediators and that a "stick and carrot" policy is ineffective. He added that progress is contingent upon an agreement on Iran's seven stated conditions.
Furthermore, Ebrahim Azizi, head of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee in Parliament, warned that Iran is on full security alert and prepared to counter its enemies using its capabilities within the framework of hybrid warfare. He cautioned that if the United States "makes another mistake" or miscalculates, both America and "the Zionist entity" will face severe political, economic, security, and military losses.
