War: ‘We’ll defend our sovereignty’ – Iran vows, condemns US recent attack

Iran has condemned what it calls violations by the United States after American forces struck the southern port city of Bandar Abbas, and has pledged to defend its sovereignty.

The statement came from the Iranian foreign ministry’s spokesman, Esmaeil Baqaei, on Thursday.

Baqaei said Iran would take all necessary measures to protect its national sovereignty, criticizing what he described as threatening rhetoric from U.S. officials directed at Iran and several regional states.

“Referring to the continuous ceasefire violations by the US,” Baqaei insisted, “the Islamic Republic of Iran is determined to take all necessary measures to defend its national sovereignty and territorial integrity,” the foreign ministry added.

The Islamic Republic also expressed solidarity with Oman, a friendly and brotherly country, after President Donald Trump threatened to “blow them up.”

The ministry spokesman condemned the remarks as a worrying sign of the normalization of anarchy and intimidation in international relations.

Daily Post reports that U.S. forces launched strikes that hit a ground‑control station in the southern port area of Bandar Abbas.

The strikes prompted a swift response, with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards saying they had targeted the U.S. air base that was the source of the attack, though they did not disclose its location.
