Iran Warns Trump: Any Military Action Will Be Act of War, No 'Limited Strike'

  • Iran warns US President Donald Trump that any military action will be considered an act of war, not a 'limited strike'.
  • Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei stated that any act of aggression would be met with a ferocious response as part of self-defense.
  • Reports suggest Trump is considering targeted strikes to force Iran to abandon its nuclear program and accept US terms, potentially leading to a full-scale offensive.
  • The US has deployed 40-50% of its air power, dozens of warships, hundreds of warplanes, two aircraft carriers, and tens of thousands of soldiers to West Asia.
  • Talks between the Trump administration and Iranian officials are scheduled in Oman to avert a potential war.
