Iran army says it can restore pre-deal military conditions if US breaches MoU terms

The IRGC Navy threatened US bases in the region after American strikes on Sirik, saying Washington’s attacks would not weaken what it described as Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz.

“America’s blind strikes on Sirik will not solve the question of our command over the Strait,” the IRGC Navy command said.

It said Iranian fire against what it called “violators” was meant to remind other vessels of “the clear route” for safe passage.

The IRGC Navy also warned that US bases in the region were “a separate matter,” adding: “They will experience hell in these days.”

Iran’s Foreign Ministry condemned US airstrikes on several monitoring and surveillance facilities along the country’s southern coast, calling them a renewed violation of an interim agreement meant to end the war.

The ministry said the attacks took place in the early hours of Sunday and violated both the UN Charter and the first clause of the June 18 memorandum aimed at ending the conflict.

“These brutal attacks show that the US does not place the slightest value or credibility on its commitments, and breaking promises is part of its nature,” the ministry said.

Tehran said the strikes targeted facilities used for monitoring and surveillance on Iran’s southern coast.

The Foreign Ministry also called on the UN Security Council and the UN secretary-general to act in defense of international peace and security, while saying Iran reserved its right to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity under Article 51 of the UN Charter.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi left for Baghdad on Sunday for talks with senior Iraqi officials, with arrangements for funeral ceremonies for slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in Iraq’s Shiite holy sites among the issues on the agenda.

Iranian state-linked media said Araghchi would discuss bilateral relations as well as regional and international developments during his official visit.

The report said he would also coordinate with Iraqi authorities over funeral arrangements for Khamenei in the holy shrines, a sign of Tehran’s effort to give the burial ceremonies a regional Shiite dimension beyond Iran’s own cities.

The visit comes as Iran is preparing days of funeral events for Khamenei after his killing during the war, while Tehran also remains locked in disputes with the United States over the ceasefire, the Strait of Hormuz and the future of regional fronts.

The Israeli military said Sunday it killed Hezbollah militants armed with rocket-propelled grenades and struck a rocket launcher in the Nabatieh area of southern Lebanon.

The military said it attacked the structure from which the militants were operating and dismantled a rocket launcher that it said posed a threat to Israeli soldiers.

The strike comes as southern Lebanon remains one of the unresolved fronts in the wider confrontation involving Israel, Hezbollah and Iran, despite ongoing efforts to stabilize the border.

Javad Khiabani, an Iranian sports broadcaster, appeared on state television urging Algeria in Arabic to beat Austria, framing it as Muslim brotherhood to help Iran qualify.

"Today you are not playing only for Algeria. You are playing only for the Algerian people today. This will give Muslim peoples a chance to qualify and prove that two Muslim nations," Khiabani said. "We believe Algeria will play for victory, and we are certain, as always, that we are waiting for that victory. For the sake of brotherhood and honor between our peoples, for the dignity and respect between two nations."
