Iran says it will step up efforts to tackle economic problems it attributes to U.S. sanctions. A senior Iranian official also warns that any further attacks will be “more painful,” framing the threat as a response to ongoing tensions.

The two outlets report the same core messages: Iran focuses on economic policy and resilience amid sanctions, while simultaneously signaling that escalation could follow. Yahoo News and Japan Today both describe the remarks as linking internal economic pressures to the wider security environment.

While the outlets share the same framing, they do not provide additional, detailed information in the provided excerpts about what specific economic measures Iran plans to implement, or what type of “further attacks” the official refers to. The emphasis in both accounts is on Iran’s stated priorities—economic management under sanctions—and its warning of increased consequences for future actions.
