Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that any US attack or threat against Iran will be met with a response, stressing that the country’s military would not leave any act of hostility unanswered.

In a post on X, Araghchi urged the United States to stay out of the region, saying, “Leave our region if you want to be safe.” He also referenced historical conflicts in the Persian Gulf, warning that past experiences show “dire fates of intruding outsiders.”

His remarks come amid heightened tensions between Tehran and Washington, with Iran reiterating its readiness to defend itself against external threats.
