Donald Trump has dragged us into a war the American people do not want.

The Congress must act immediately.

The fiery martyrdom of the wise Leader of the Islamic Revolution will remain with the Iranian nation for many years to come.

The crime of the criminals and the martyrdom of Iran's dear ones will not create any hindrance in the determination of the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran to fulfill its duties and responsibilities.

We remain steadfast in pursuing the path of Iran's pride, independence, and glory.

To the countries of the region: We are not seeking to attack you.

But when the bases located in your country are used against us, and when the United States carries out operations in the region relying on these forces, then we will target those bases.

For these bases are not part of the land of those countries; rather, they are American soil.
