“It is claimed that Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has instructed that any possible military response against the United States and Israel be carried out without geographic restriction.”
Globalinfo.az reports that this was stated by Iranologist Vardan Voskanyan.
According to him, during a meeting with representatives of the Iranian Armed Forces’ supreme command, Khamenei instructed that immediate and effective strikes be carried out against infrastructure linked to the United States and Israel in the event of an attack on the country.
Voskanyan said that two points in this statement stand out:
“Mojtaba Khamenei met directly with the military command to give these instructions, and the fact that possible retaliatory strikes have no geographic limitation.”
The Iranologist suggested that under such a scenario, strikes could also extend to other countries:
“The precise answer to which countries would be chosen as targets in a possible war is known only to a limited number of decision-makers in Iran.”
