Axios Claims Recent Attacks on Iran Exceeded Previous Operations in Scale and Intensity

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, the news outlet Axios, quoting a U.S. official, has claimed that the recent overnight attacks on several facilities in southern Iran were quantitatively and qualitatively more extensive and severe than the attacks conducted 10 days prior. This U.S. official reportedly told Axios that the intensity of the recent attacks is assessed to be four to five times greater than the previous ones.

In its new report, Axios, referencing a U.S. official, has repeated its accusations against Iran regarding maritime security in the Strait of Hormuz, attempting to justify Washington’s hostile approach. This U.S. source, using interventionist language, alleged that Donald Trump approved and ordered an attack plan on Iran during his visit to Turkey for a NATO summit. The U.S. official further described Iran’s positions as threatening and asserted that Tehran must accept responsibility for the ‘consequences’ of its actions.

These statements emerge while military officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran consistently emphasize national sovereignty and full preparedness to decisively respond to any adventurism or aggression by enemies in the region. According to Axios, a U.S. official stated that Washington is currently compiling and assessing the results of recent attacks against targets in Iran. This source claimed that future U.S. decisions will be made based on the outcomes of these assessments. These remarks come at a time when official sources within Iran have not yet provided complete details regarding the dimensions of these aggressions, though the country’s military officials have consistently underscored their readiness to respond to any enemy adventurism.
