Iran’s military threatened more destruction and touted its might, in a response to Donald Trump’s national address Wednesday evening, in which the US president said the conflict is “nearing completion” and threatened to take Iran “back to the stone ages.”
The war will continue until the US and Israel face “humiliation, disgrace, lasting regret, and ultimate surrender,” the spokesperson for the Iranian military headquarters said in the statement, reported by Iranian state media IRIB.
“Following the powerful and unimaginable blows you have already received, expect even more crushing, more extensive and destructive actions from us,” the statement said.
Iran also dismissed Trump’s claims that its military has been severely weakened, saying the US knows “nothing about our vast and strategic capabilities.”
“The centers you believe you have targeted are insignificant. Our strategic military production takes place in locations you are completely unaware of – and will never be able to reach.”
