Iran warns US it will retaliate over any Israeli strike

Iran’s mission to the United Nations said that Tehran has warned the US it would attack again if Israel retaliates for Iran’s missile strike on Tuesday.

Iran said it exchanged messages with the US using the Swiss embassy in Tehran as an intermediary.

“Our response will be solely directed at the aggressor. Should any country render assistance to the aggressor, it shall likewise be deemed an accomplice and a legitimate target," Iran's mission said.
