Iran military says ready to respond to any renewed US attack

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards warn of strong retaliation if fighting resumes, as a fragile US-Iran ceasefire holds and negotiations remain uncertain.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it is ready to deliver “crushing blows” if hostilities with the United States resume, despite a extension of the fragile ceasefire.

In a statement, the Guards stressed full military readiness and described the ceasefire period as a “silent battlefield,” requiring constant vigilance against potential threats.

The warning comes as tensions remain high, with the United States Navy maintaining pressure through maritime measures, while both sides keep military forces on alert.

Analysts say such rhetoric highlights possible friction between Iran’s military posture and ongoing diplomatic efforts, potentially complicating efforts to reach a durable agreement.

Recent incidents at sea have intensified tensions, including reports of a commercial vessel linked to Iran being seized by US forces and subsequent drone-related confrontations attributed to Iranian forces.

These developments have raised fears of escalation in key waterways, where both sides have demonstrated willingness to use military assets despite ongoing ceasefire conditions.

The ceasefire was extended by Donald Trump to allow more time for diplomacy, following mediation efforts involving Pakistan aimed at restarting negotiations.

Talks are expected to resume in Islamabad, but uncertainty remains as both sides exchange warnings, with observers cautioning that miscalculation could quickly derail fragile progress.
