Tehran will treat US military and commercial bases as targets for retaliation if Washington intervenes militarily in unrest-hit Iran, its hardline parliamentary speaker has warned.

“We do not limit ourselves to only reacting after an action has been taken,” he added.

The warning came after US President Donald Trump reiterated his threat to attack Iran if authorities used force to quell a growing wave of nationwide protests sparked by frustration against the government.
