US President Donald Trump warns Iran of further military strikes following coastal attacks
US President Donald Trump warned of further strikes on Iran following military actions near Bandar Abbas, while Tehran vowed to respond decisively to continued aggression.
Tensions between Washington and Tehran have heightened after American military forces conducted strikes on Iranian coastal targets near Bandar Abbas and Sirik. US President Donald Trump cautioned that further military operations remain possible if Tehran retaliates, claiming Iranian leadership is seeking diplomatic dialogue with Washington.
In response, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that his nation does not seek broader conflict but pledged to "respond decisively" to any future actions. Iranian military officials also maintained that their naval operations remain fully functional despite the recent bombardment. The strikes represent the first direct military engagement between the two nations in a month.
