Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned the United States to “expect regrettable responses” to its strikes on Tehran’s nuclear sites.
In a statement carried by state TV, hours after US strikes, the IRGC said it would “use options beyond the understanding… of the aggressor front, and the aggressors of this land must expect regrettable responses.”
The Guards also announced to have identified and is closely monitoring the takeoff locations of aircraft involved in the US strike campaign against the Islamic Republic.
The powerful Iranian force lambasted the US for what it described as a historical pattern of failed strategies in the region.
“The repetition of past failed follies by the United States reflects a strategic incapacity and neglect of the realities of the region. Instead of learning from repeated failures, Washington has now placed itself on the front lines of aggression by directly attacking peaceful facilities.”

It warned that the very breadth of US military infrastructure in the region was a weakness, not a strength.
“As we have repeatedly stated, the number, dispersion, and scope of US military bases in the region are not a source of strength, but rather have multiplied their vulnerability.”
“Today’s aggression by the terrorist U.S. regime has compelled the Islamic Republic of Iran, within the framework of its legitimate right to self-defense, to resort to options that go beyond the delusional calculations of the aggressor front. The invaders of this land must await regret-inducing response,” the IRGC warned.
