Iran has made it clear that any form of aggression against the nation will be classified as a full-scale war. This statement comes in light of the United States dispatching an aircraft carrier strike group along with additional military resources to the Middle East in the upcoming days.

A high-ranking Iranian official, who requested anonymity, remarked that the U.S. military buildup is “not aimed at real confrontation,” however, Iran stands ready for any adverse scenarios. “Iran is on heightened alert,” the official asserted.

“Any attack we face—be it limited, extensive, surgical, or kinetic—will be considered a declaration of war against us. We will react with utmost severity to address this situation,” the official emphasized, highlighting Iran’s commitment to self-defense.

This declaration follows remarks from U.S. President Donald Trump, who noted that a “large force” of American naval ships is en route to Iran. He expressed hope that military intervention wouldn’t be required while simultaneously cautioning Tehran against threatening protesters or reviving its nuclear ambitions.

Iran did not elaborate on potential retaliatory measures but reaffirmed that nations facing continual threats have the right to prepare and utilize every resource necessary for self-protection. “Should the Americans infringe upon our sovereignty and territorial integrity, we will respond accordingly,” the official warned.

Historically, the United States has augmented its military footprint in the region during times of heightened tension, often citing defensive postures. Last year, a significant military buildup occurred prior to planned strikes against Iran's nuclear sites.

The escalating situation has captured international attention as both parties demonstrate readiness for confrontation. Analysts underscore the necessity for diplomatic efforts to avert escalation and uphold stability in the region.

As tensions persist, global citizens and governments remain vigilant, hoping that diplomatic avenues can forestall conflict and that the dire warnings of an all-out war do not culminate in military engagement.
