Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, has said a US attack on Pickaxe Mountain would lead Iran to target all US military bases, including those in European countries. ABC News reports the remarks, made to Lebanon's Al Mayadeen TV, citing the Iranian broadcaster IRIB.
Iran had already threatened US bases in Europe if they were used for attacks. This is the first time a specific trigger has been named.
Al Jazeera separately quotes a social media post by Rezaei.
"If the US launches another war against Iran, every military base involved in the aggression, from West Asia to Europe, will be a legitimate target for Iran's lethal strikes."
The same post adds: "No safe distance. No safe haven. No immunity."
