From Fox News: Iran on Friday said the U.S., as a “backer” of Israel, “shall be held fully accountable” for the series of strikes Jerusalem levied overnight against Tehran, its nuclear and military facilities, and top officials – deepening retaliatory concerns over U.S. bases near Iran.
The U.N. Mission to Iran sent a letter to the United Nations Security Council condemning the attacks that killed four military commanders, one Iranian official allegedly involved in the nuclear talks with the U.S., and two nuclear scientists, and said that Israel’s “conduct” in the region “poses a serious threat to international security.”
But earlier this week, just days ahead of a planned meeting between Washington and Tehran in Oman to discuss nuclear negotiations, Iranian Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh threatened to hit U.S. bases in the Middle East, should Israel once again directly strike the Persian nation.
In a Reuters report published before the strikes, Nasirzadeh commented on Israel considering a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
“Some officials on the other side threaten conflict if negotiations don’t come to fruition,” he said, according to Reuters. “If a conflict is imposed on us … all U.S. bases are within our reach, and we will boldly target them in host countries.”
President Donald Trump said Thursday that he executed a partial evacuation of the U.S. embassy in Iraq and authorized military dependents to depart from locations in the Middle East due to the possibility of an escalation.
“I had to do it,” he told reporters. “We have a lot of American people in this area. And I said, we got to tell them to get out because something could happen soon, and I don’t want to be the one that didn’t give any warning and missiles are flying into their buildings.”
