The
Hill - A senior Iranian adviser
threatened on Friday to launch a wider war in the Middle East following days of
intense fighting, warning that “full-scale offensive operations” could resume
if U.S. military strikes do not cease.
“Iran will no longer limit itself
to retaliatory, like-for-like responses…and no political border will be safe,”
Major-General Mohsen Rezaei, an adviser to Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei,
said, according to several outlets, citing Iranian news agency IRIB.
U.S. forces launched a seventh
consecutive night of strikes on Friday, hitting bridges around Bandar Abbas, a
port city in the Persian Gulf where the Iranian Navy is headquartered.
The fresh wave of strikes, which
ended around 9:30 p.m. EDT, also targeted surveillance sites, military
logistics infrastructure, underground weapons storage and maritime
capabilities, according to U.S. Central Command (Centcom).
