Iran would strike US bases in Europe and on distant islands if the United States attacks again, the country’s top security official said, warning countries that host American forces that any base involved in an attack would become a target. “We may even target some American military bases in European countries,” Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, told Al Mayadeen. Iran limited its strikes to Israel in June 2025 and hit US bases across the region this year. Its main ballistic missiles have ranges of about 2,000 kilometers. Rezaei said Vladimir Putin told him he had informed the Americans that the Islamic Republic “is not a system that can be toppled.” He denied any talks with Washington, called reports of a meeting with JD Vance “lies,” and said the Strait of Hormuz would stay closed until Iran’s seven conditions were met.
