Overnight hostilities between the United States and Iran remain a “limited and contained confrontation”, a senior Iranian source tells Reuters, adding that Tehran is ready to deliver a harsh response if attacked again.
The source, who has direct knowledge of Iranian decision-making and has declined to be named, says that conditions in the Strait of Hormuz “will become worse for vessels that violate” rules set by Tehran for passage through the waterway, adding that no target in the region is beyond Iran’s reach.
