Almost all officials are safe and alive.

We may have lost one or two commanders, but that is not a big problem.

We are attacking American bases in an act of self-defense.

We cannot just sit and watch as they attack us.

I don’t know why the U.S. administration insists on starting negotiations and then, in the middle of them, attacking the other party.

What happened today is exactly what happened in June.

Perhaps it was others who dragged the United States into this conflict for their own benefit.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian are alive, as far as I know.

All high-ranking officials are alive.

We are facing an act of aggression, and obviously we have every right to defend ourselves. So what we are doing is an act of self-defense, which is absolutely legal and legitimate.

We learned many lessons from the previous war, and we will certainly teach the aggressors a lesson they deserve.

For the time being, we don’t need anybody for our defense.

We are capable enough to defend ourselves, and we will do that.

We don’t need the help of anybody.

Once the aggression is stopped, we will also stop our self-defense.
