“As we have already announced, any attacks on infrastructure will be responded to, and the criminal Zionist regime responsible for these atrocities will not escape the response of our warriors,” Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, head of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, said on state TV.
The war in the Persian Gulf has escalated again after the United States carried out several strikes against Iran earlier this week. They were said to have targeted military targets - boats and air defences - belonging to Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard. The attacks were in retaliation for attacks on three merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz earlier this week.
