Iran threatens US and Israel with more and tougher attacks

Iran is threatening Israel and the United States with more attacks that it says will be "even harsher," the Iranian news agency ISNA reported on Thursday.

A spokesman for the armed forces headquarters told ISNA that the opponents' knowledge of Iran's military capabilities, power and equipment was incomplete and that their attacks so far had failed to destroy the country's military strength.

"You know nothing about our very extensive and strategic capabilities," the spokesman said.

He said the targets hit so far by the US and Israel were insignificant. Strategic military production was taking place in locations "about which you have no knowledge whatsoever and which you will never be able to reach."

Israel and the US should not give in to the illusion that they had destroyed production centres for strategic missiles, long-range offensive and precision-guided drones, novel air defence systems, electronic warfare and special equipment, the spokesman said.

The war would continue until the opponents capitulated, he said. "Wait for even harsher measures."
