Iranian army spokesman: the United States could strike Iran again

TEHRAN, September 27, 2026 – The United States could attack Iran again at any moment, a spokesman for Iran’s army said on Saturday, warning that Tehran remains ready to respond, as Al Jazeera reports.

The warning reflects the lingering tensions after the June conflict, when U.S. and Israeli strikes hit Iranian nuclear and military sites and Iran retaliated with missile attacks.

The spokesman said Iran’s armed forces are at full readiness and that any new aggression would be met with a “crushing” response.

The rhetoric comes amid a fragile ceasefire and stalled diplomacy, with Washington demanding curbs on Iran’s nuclear and missile programs while Tehran insists on its right to self-defense.

Regional analysts say both sides are using public warnings to deter the other, but the risk of miscalculation remains high as military assets stay deployed across the region.
