On June 28, local time, the Iranian semi-official Tasnim News Agency reported that the Foreign Ministry issued a statement condemning the U.S. military's attacks on several surveillance and reconnaissance facilities along Iran's southern coast. The statement described the strikes as a "barbaric attack" that blatantly violates Article 2, Section 4 of the United Nations Charter and the first clause of the ceasefire MOU signed on June 18.
The ministry criticized the U.S. administration for showing little regard for its commitments, asserting that the breach of promises reflects the nature of the current regime.
It further emphasized Iran's resolve to defend its national sovereignty and territorial integrity against U.S. military aggression, citing Article 51 of the UN Charter. This reiterates Iran's intention to exercise its right to self-defense in response to any further military actions by the United States.
Earlier, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that it had targeted eight key U.S. military facilities, including the Ali Al-Salem Air Base in Kuwait and the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain, as retaliation for the airstrikes.
The IRGC warned that any attack by the enemy, regardless of the justification, would result in a strong response, stating that violations of the ceasefire would be considered breaches of the Islamabad MOU and could lead to a complete halt of all related procedures.
