According to Iranian Member of Parliament Manouchehr Mottaki, Tehran could strike U.S. bases in Europe if aggression against the Islamic Republic were to resume.
Earlier, on October 31, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, instructed the military to respond effectively to any threats, emphasizing that such a response should not be subject to any geographical limitations.
Mottaki, as quoted by the ISNA news agency, explained that the phrase "outside the region" refers to strikes against locations used to target Iran; he added that there is evidence to suggest Europe is currently one such geographical area. Consequently, the absence of geographical limitations, as the lawmaker noted, means that Iranian missiles could reach Europe.
On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a large-scale military operation against Iran. Major cities across the country, including the capital, Tehran, were subjected to strikes. The White House explained that the hostilities were initiated out of a need to neutralize the missile and nuclear threats posed by Tehran.
It was previously reported that Trump explained why he does not wish to rush into resuming strikes against Iran.
