The military adviser to Iran's supreme leader on Wednesday warned of more missile and drone strikes should the United States renew its attacks on Iran. "Every shot fired and every attack will be met with a deluge of missiles and drones," Mohsen Rezaei posted on X, adding that "the aggressor will swiftly be punished.” The warning followed US strikes on an Iranian tanker and on Iran's Qeshm island, sparking retaliatory attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain. The strikes came as semiofficial Iranian news agencies said the country had stopped communicating with mediators about extending a ceasefire in the war with the US and Israel. A regional official said Tehran wanted the truce in Lebanon enforced before returning to talks. US President Donald Trump disputed that claim and said negotiations were continuing.
