Iran has not yet publicly detailed a full response or retaliation but closed its airspace, shut down phone networks, and mobilized security measures as the strikes unfolded. Iranian officials often portray foreign military action as violations of their sovereignty and have repeatedly warned over the past weeks that an attack could spark a wider regional conflict. In the past, Iran’s Supreme Leader and other authorities have said they would escalate hostilities if attacked, sometimes hinting at targeting U.S. bases in the region. Right now Tehran’s public messaging is cautious, but they have vowed in previous crises to defend themselves. On social media and state broadcasts, you may see strong rhetoric and condemnations of the strikes, but precise military movements take time to confirm. The world is watching closely for any Iranian military response or official statements in the hours after this major escalation.
