Iran Signals Retaliation After U.S. Strike on Nuclear Sites: “We Have to Respond”

Tensions in the Middle East are escalating fast, and Iran says the clock may be running out on diplomacy.

In the wake of U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned that his country feels compelled to retaliate, saying the attack crossed a serious line.

“They crossed a very big red line by attacking nuclear facilities,” Araghchi said during an interview. “We have to respond based on our legitimate right for self-defense.”

Diplomacy in Doubt

When asked about the chances of avoiding further conflict, Araghchi expressed deep skepticism. “I don’t know how much room is left for diplomacy,” he admitted, signaling that Tehran views the U.S. strike as a dangerous escalation—one that could close the door on peaceful negotiations.

A Range of Responses—and a Warning About the Strait of Hormuz

While Araghchi did not confirm specific military plans, he made it clear that Iran is weighing its options. When asked whether the government was considering closing the Strait of Hormuz—a narrow but critically important waterway through which a significant portion of the world’s oil and gas flows—he replied that Iran has “a variety of options available.”

Though no direct threats were made, the implication is serious: any disruption to the strait could have major consequences for global energy markets.

Regional Leaders Are Alarmed

Araghchi also revealed that he’s been speaking with foreign ministers from across the Middle East, many of whom, he says, share Iran’s concern about rising tensions.

“Almost all of them are very much concerned,” he said, adding that they’re interested in playing a role in efforts to halt what he described as “Israeli aggression.”

While the immediate trigger for Iran’s anger is the U.S. strike, Tehran continues to frame the broader conflict in terms of Israeli hostility—a narrative it has long used to rally regional and international support.
