Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Mousavi,says Iran will respond to any further threats from the US.
He stated this in a televised remark on Sunday hours after US President, Donald Trump said Washington would target Iranian sites if Tehran attacks Americans or US assets in retaliation of the killing of Soleimani.
“We will not remain silent against any threat,” Mousavi said, adding that Iran is not pursuing war, but is “prepared,” according to Al Jazeera.
“These actions were against all international laws … the international community should come together against this heinous act.”
Trump, Sunday morning, declared America’s preparedness for war with Iran.
He resumed his warning to Iran not to retaliate the killing of Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani.
Soleimani, the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ elite Quds Force, was killed by a US airstrike on Friday.
Trump advised Iran not to attack American citizens or interests and reiterated the consequences of such actions.
Trump tweeted: “The United States just spent Two Trillion Dollars on Military Equipment. We are the biggest and by far the BEST in the World!
“If Iran attacks an American Base, or any American, we will be sending some of that brand new beautiful equipment their way…and without hesitation!”
