Tensions between Iran and the United States have escalated dramatically following U.S. military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, with Tehran vowing that the attacks will bring “everlasting consequences.”

In a fiery reaction on Sunday, Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, condemned the U.S. strikes as “outrageous,” declaring that Iran reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, national interest, and people.

“The events this morning are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences,” Araghchi posted on X (formerly Twitter). “Iran reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interests, and people.”

The backlash follows a statement by U.S. President Donald Trump, who confirmed that the U.S. military launched successful operations targeting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. The strikes, according to Washington, were aimed at curbing Iran’s nuclear capabilities, which the U.S. believes could threaten global peace.
