Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei ordered senior military commanders to confront threats with an immediate, effective, and unrestricted geographical response if attacks resume.
Khamenei emphasized intelligent combat readiness for maximum deterrence and directed armed forces to strengthen Iran's defense technology during a meeting with military commanders.
Meanwhile, a preliminary draft framework for US-Iran negotiations proposes transferring Iran's enriched uranium stockpile and reopening the Strait of Hormuz within seven days of an initial understanding.
