The United States Strikes Iran for Seventh Consecutive Night, Iran Threatens to Enter 'Full-Scale Assault and Destruction' Phase

BlockBeats News, July 18, the US Central Command stated that at 3 pm Eastern Time on Friday, the US Central Command launched the seventh consecutive night of strikes against Iran, aiming to further weaken Iran's military capability.

Iran's Supreme Leader's advisor, Rezaei, previously stated that if the US continues to launch attacks in the next two to three days, Iran will end its previous strategy of deterrence and proportionate retaliation, shifting to a "comprehensive attack and destruction" phase, and may directly target US overseas military bases and personnel. He stated that Iran's previous restraint was to avoid the spillover of regional conflict, but the US's "miscalculation" could escalate the situation.

Rezaei also called on regional countries and governments such as Kuwait, Jordan, Qatar, and the UAE to prevent the US and Israel from expanding their actions, stating that the US's strategy of "war and negotiation in parallel" has failed, and Iran will intensify its counterattacks in the coming days.
