Iran warns Trump: Escalation will be met with escalation
Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi warned US President Trump that any escalation would be reciprocated, as tensions between the two nations enter their seventh day. The warning follows Trump's earlier statement that Iran would be hit "very hard" and that targets could expand. Tensions escalated last Saturday when the US and Israel launched air strikes on Iran, resulting in the death of the Iranian Supreme Leader and other top officials. The conflict has continued with missile and drone exchanges claiming multiple lives. Araghchi's statement underscores the potential for further escalation in the ongoing hostilities.
