Iranian regime media urges immediate retaliation with Quranic justification.

By Lauren Marcus, World Israel News

The U.S. and Israel are gearing up for retaliatory strikes launched by Iran, after the American military “totally obliterated” key nuclear sites in the country.

Shortly after the strikes, Trump warned against Iranian retribution on his Truth Social platform.

“ANY RETALIATION BY IRAN AGAINST THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL BE MET WITH FORCE FAR GREATER THAN WHAT WAS WITNESSED TONIGHT,” Trump wrote.

Despite the warning, Iranian officials pledged that they would attack U.S. military assets in the region in response to the strikes.

Iran lacks the offensive capabilities to reach the U.S. and could not carry out an attack on American soil, so Tehran is limited to targeting U.S. troops and bases in the Middle East.

“Following America’s attack on the Fordow nuclear installation, it is now our turn,” Hossein Shariatmadari, editor of the regime-controlled Kayhan newspaper and a close confidant of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, wrote on social media platform Telegram.

“Without hesitation or delay, as a first step we must launch missile strikes on the American naval fleet based in Bahrain and simultaneously close the Strait of Hormuz to American, British, German, and French shipping,” he continued.

Shariatmadari concluded his post with a verse from the Quran, reading “Kill them wherever you shall overtake (find) them.”

Iran’s regional proxies, including the Iraq-based Kataib Hezbollah terror group, have pledged to support the Islamic Republic in the event of an American attack.

“Operational plans have been established for that purpose,” Abu Ali al-Askari, a Kataib Hezbollah official, warned on social media Thursday.

“Undoubtedly, American bases throughout the region will become akin to duck-hunting grounds … not to mention the unforeseen surprises that may await its aircraft in the skies,” al-Askari added.

Israel’s Homefront Command tightened existing wartime restrictions on the general public, banning gatherings, closing businesses except those deemed essential, and suspending all educational activities.
