Khaberni - Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated on Saturday that all sites involved in the Israeli and American strikes on his country are considered "legitimate targets" for the Iranian forces.
Araghchi said on Iranian television, "The Iranian armed forces consider the launch sites of the American and Zionist operations, as well as all the sites from which acts against the Iranian defensive operations were carried out, as legitimate targets."
The state television attributed to a commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard that Tehran has only launched "scrap missiles" and will soon reveal unexpected weapons.
Israel stated that it carried out a "preemptive" attack against Iran on Saturday, renewing the military confrontation in the Middle East and weakening the chances of reaching a diplomatic resolution to the years-long dispute with the West over Tehran's nuclear program, while the Iranian news agency Fars reported 3 explosions in central Tehran.
This attack, preceded by a 12-day air war between Israel and Iran in June, follows repeated warnings from the United States and Israel that they would carry out another attack if Iran continued with its nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz stated, "Israel launched a preemptive attack on Iran to counter the threats it faces."
Iranian media reported hearing explosions in Tehran on Saturday.
