If US attacks, Iran says it will strike US bases in the region
Iran warns of retaliation against US military bases in the Middle East if attacked, excluding host countries, citing past missile strikes as precedent.
- On Feb 7, Iran warned it would strike US bases in the Middle East if attacked by American forces massed in the region, Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi told Qatari Al Jazeera.

- Araqchi framed Iran's response as limited to US bases, stating it would not attack neighboring countries or American soil but would target US bases in the region.
- Iran warned it would target US bases in the Middle East if attacked, as Araqchi said `We and Washington believe it should be held soon`.
