Iran warns of retaliation against Israel and US following attacks.

Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, recently spoke to a group of students about the ongoing tensions between Iran, Israel, and the United States. He promised a strong response to Israel and the U.S. for their actions against Iran and its allies, including Hamas and Hezbollah. This comes after Israel conducted retaliatory strikes on Iranian military sites last month.

During the meeting, Khamenei emphasized the importance of being prepared for any aggression from their enemies. He mentioned that the Iranian officials are actively working towards this goal, both in terms of military readiness and political actions. Iran and Israel have a long-standing rivalry, which has intensified after recent events, including Hamas' attacks and the Israeli invasion of Gaza.

Khamenei's statements come just a week after Israel's most recent strikes on Iranian territory, which were in response to Iran's missile attack on Israel. This was a significant escalation in tensions between the two countries, with Israel admitting to hitting targets on Iranian soil for the first time. However, they refrained from targeting any energy or nuclear facilities.

Iran has been considering how to respond to these strikes, with sources stating that it will be "definitive and painful." Khamenei's recent comments seem to confirm this, marking a shift from Iran's previous attempts to downplay the severity of Israel's strikes. In the past, Khamenei had urged for the attacks to neither be exaggerated nor downplayed.

The U.S. has also been monitoring the situation closely, with White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre stating that Iran should not respond to Israel's strikes. However, she also added that the U.S. would be ready to assist Israel in its defense if Iran chooses to retaliate.

In a recent interview, a high-ranking Iranian official mentioned that the country is capable of producing nuclear weapons. However, they are currently following a mandate from Khamenei, which prohibits the use of weapons of mass destruction.

As tensions continue to rise, both Iran and Israel are keeping a close eye on each other's actions. Israel has stated that they are on high alert for any potential retaliation from Iran, while Iran is considering all options before taking action. It is a delicate situation, and the world is watching to see how it unfolds.
