Iran’s armed forces chief of staff and Khatam al-Anbiya Central Command commander said in a letter to the IRGC Aerospace Force commander that any positions posing an existential threat to Iran would be direct targets of asymmetric strikes. He warned the United States and Israel that prior hits were only the beginning and that any new miscalculation would be met with far more lethal attacks, a threat he characterized as credible and within Iran’s current operational capabilities.
