Iranian Commander Threatens Retaliation Against US Forces for Iranian Deaths
A senior Iranian commander, Ali Abdollahi, has warned that Iran would retaliate against US forces for every Iranian killed in any US attack. He described the threat as a direct response policy amid rising tensions between Tehran and Washington. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi also said Tehran would reject any temporary ceasefire unless its demands over the Strait of Hormuz are met. He maintained that the dispute is rooted in US policy, not a lack of mediators. Iran says it will continue consultations with countries including China, Russia and Pakistan, while insisting it will not yield to pressure or threats. The escalating rhetoric raises concerns about further conflict across the region.
