Iran’s foreign ministry said its armed forces struck US bases in Jordan in
retaliation for a US attack on Larak Island. The ministry said its forces will
not hesitate to exercise their inherent right of self-defense and will respond
firmly and appropriately to any enemy military aggression. It added the US
regime and all parties involved in planning or carrying out what it called
illegal US actions, including the ongoing maritime blockade and economic warfare
against Iran, will bear full responsibility for any new US aggression and its
consequences.
