Iran has warned that it will respond forcefully to any future military aggression against the country, according to a Foreign Ministry statement. Tehran also said the United States and parties supporting its military actions would bear full responsibility for any new escalation. No date was provided for the statement.

The ministry said Iranian armed forces struck US military bases in Jordan in response to what it described as a US attack on Larak Island. It claimed the US facilities in Jordan had been used to carry out and support the attack on the island, where Iranian armed forces members and civilians were killed and injured.

Tehran said its strikes on US military installations in Jordan were retaliatory and warned that it would respond even more strongly to similar attacks in the future. The statement said tensions between Iran and the United States had increased after the reported attack on Larak Island, while Iran's claimed retaliatory action in Jordan had further complicated the situation.
