Event details

Guardian reported that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned Iran would answer attacks or threats after U.S. strikes on Iran. AP separately reported Araghchi's warning that foreign forces near Iran are at risk and should leave, while CENTCOM framed the U.S. action as proportional.

Context

The warning shifts the immediate watch from target identification to Tehran's response calculus. The practical test is whether Iran keeps the message at deterrence while negotiators continue, or uses Hormuz or coastal assets to answer the U.S. strike.
