Iran has sent a blunt message to Washington as the Iran–US–Israel war enters a deadly new phase. Lt. Col. Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesperson for Iran’s Khatam al‑Anbiya Central Headquarters, mocked recent US‑Israeli strikes, saying the “centers” they hit were “insignificant” and boasting that Iran’s real armament facilities are hidden and will “never” be reached. The warning came just after President Donald Trump threatened to hit Iran “extremely hard” over the next two to three weeks and vowed to push the country “back to the Stone Ages,” even while declaring that US military objectives are on track or already achieved.
