Feda-Hossein Maleki, a member of the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, says Tehran will respond militarily to Ukraine’s attack on an Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea, Al Jazeera reports.
“We responded through diplomatic channels and presented an ultimatum, but a military response will certainly follow,” Maleki says.
On Saturday, Ukraine struck an Iranian merchant vessel, killing one sailor and injuring another.
