Iran Vows 'Retaliation Today' After US Strikes Kill Toddler, IRGC Says 'No Foreign Party' Allowed to Interfere
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has promised to retaliate immediately after US airstrikes killed at least three people, including a two-year-old child, and threatened to punish the aggressor before the day is over.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have vowed to “punish the aggressor today,” according to state media, after a wave of US air strikes hit the Islamic Republic overnight, killing at least three people, including a two-year-old child [207217]. The US military said it struck dozens of Revolutionary Guard targets across the country, including military command centers and drone facilities [207217].
In a separate statement, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) declared: “No foreign party that has come from thousands of kilometers away will be allowed to interfere,” and vowed to retaliate “today” following the attacks [207270]. The IRGC signaled an immediate response, warning that no external intervention would be tolerated [207270]. The United States has not yet commented on the threat [207270].
The attacks and the IRGC’s response mark a sharp escalation in tensions between the two nations, with civilian casualties—including the death of a toddler—fueling calls for immediate retaliation from Tehran [207217][207270].
