Spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces Abolfazl Shekarchi has warned that Tehran has “identified its targets” in case of an attack from the US and Israel and remains “ready for war,” Press TV reports.

“The response to any new aggression will be different from previous ones,” the spokesperson said, stressing that attacks will “go beyond regional borders and will be much more intense, devastating, and forceful”.

“If war breaks out again and Iran’s exports are blocked, the Islamic Republic of Iran will prevent the export of oil from the region,” the spokesperson further warned.
