Iran’s supreme leader issues a new warning to the United States, saying continued U.S. attacks would bring “unforgettable lessons.” Multiple outlets report that the statement is attributed to Mojtaba Khamenei and is broadcast on Iranian state television. The remarks come as fighting between Iran and the U.S. continues, with PBS NewsHour describing renewed hostilities as ongoing and unresolved.
Al-Monitor and other reports link the warning to a reported increase in U.S. military activity, including Washington reporting its first military deaths since hostilities were renewed. Al-Monitor also includes comments from Iranian deputy foreign minister Kazem Gharibabadi, who tells state TV that the U.S. is not achieving progress through “aggressive actions.” Some coverage frames the warning in relation to a broader context of efforts to end the conflict, while other reports focus on the threat itself and Iran’s position that additional U.S. actions will trigger retaliation.
Across the sources, the key points are that Iran delivers the warning via official channels, the message is conditional on continued U.S. attacks, and the statements reflect heightened tensions with no clear end in sight.
