Will not bow to US bullying: Araghchi rejects Washington's pressure tactics at SCO summit
Bishkek, July 25: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reaffirmed that Tehran will refuse to cave to American pressure or intimidation, asserting that the country will not submit to coercion or force. According to a report by Press TV, while speaking to journalists following a meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Council of Foreign Ministers in Cholpon-Ata, Kyrgyzstan, Araghchi addressed discussions regarding diplomatic channels. Asked about bilateral exchanges on the sidelines, he stated that the principal barrier between Tehran and Washington is not a lack of communication pathways, but rather the United States' persistent reliance on ullying and coercion. Iran has shown that it will not bow to US bullying and will under no circumstances respond to the language of force, pressure, and threats, Araghchi stressed. He noted that holding talks with Pakistan, which serves as a mediating party, concerning various proposals was a natural step. Outlining Tehran's core stance, Araghchi added, Protecting the Iranian people and protecting Iran's interests in the Strait of Hormuz are among our principles. As long as the rightful objectives and demands of the Iranian people are not realized, we will naturally continue our path, he stated, adding, We are not afraid of threats, nor will we succumb to pressure, and we do not tolerate the language of threats. Araghchi observed that Iran's armed forces on the front lines and its diplomats on the international stage are executing complementary roles in service of the nation. He urged member states of the SCO, which he characterised as a progressive organisation, to counter the unilateralist agenda of Washington and Western bodies seeking to dominate international relations. During the summit, Araghchi met with his counterparts from Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Pakistan, Egypt, Uzbekistan, and China on the sidelines. He noted holding detailed talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, confirming that Tehran maintains ongoing coordination with Beijing and Moscow. In his main address, Araghchi called on the SCO to take a strong stance against unilateralism, champion international law, and advocate for state sovereignty. Araghchi's remarks come as the US military has conducted air raids across the country for 13 consecutive nights. According to an informed official cited by Fars news agency, the US military targeted an LPG tanker entering from the direction of the Sea of Oman by launching two missiles, believing the vessel was attempting to transfer Iranian gas. Meanwhile, Fars reported that the US Ali Al-Salem Air Base in Kuwait was struck by a drone, and the headquarters of separatist groups in Erbil, Iraq, were targeted by several airstrikes. Additionally, Press TV reported that three explosions rocked the US-run al-Juffair military base in Bahrain. Meanwhile, issuing a stern warning, Major General Abdollahi, commander of Iran's Khatam Al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, stated that from this moment onward, for every Iranian martyred, one American soldier will be targeted, adding, We have prepared free and direct tickets to hell for you. This comes as American military posture in the region remains active. On Thursday, CENTCOM said that its forces successfully completed another round of strikes against Iran targeting its military assets, marking the 13th consecutive night of operations, while injuring at least two people in the Bandar Abbas region of the Islamic Republic. In retaliation, the Iranian Army on Friday carried out a fresh wave of drone strikes targeting US military bases in Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan under its ongoing Operation Lightning. (ANI)

Iran claims strikes on US military facilities in Jordan, Kuwait during ongoing operations
Tehran, July 16: Iran on Thursday claimed to have carried out drone and missile strikes on US military facilities in Jordan and Kuwait, saying the strikes were conducted in retaliation for recent US strikes on Iranian territory, according to Iran's state broadcaster IRIB. The current ongoing operations against US strikes are 'Operation Lightning' carried out by the Iranian Army and 'Operation Nasr 2' carried out by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). According to IRIB, the Iranian Army said that in the ninth phase of 'Operation Lightning,' it targeted he communication systems and fuel tanks of the US terrorist army in Jordan with destructive drones. The statement said the strike targeted the fixed radar site, communication system and fuel tanks at the Al-Azraq base in Jordan, which it called one of the most important strategic and command centres for American aggressive forces in the West Asian region. The army said the operation was launched in response to the child-killing enemy's (US) aggression against areas of our country and the Bampour Iranshahr garrison, which led to the martyrdom of 7 army ground force officers and soldiers. Condemning the strikes on the Payvar and Vazhd staff sanatorium in Iranshahr, the army said, The children of the nation in the army are the sacrifices of the people and defenders of Iran's security, and they will not shrink from the honourable task of defending the nation and Islamic homeland and avenging the blood of the dear martyrs. Separately, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), in its Announcement No. 15, claimed responsibility for strikes on the US military's Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, in its eighth wave of Operation Nasr 2. According to IRIB, the IRGC said, Following last night's enemy aggression against parts of the country's southern coasts and cities, your brave and heroic sons in the IRGC Navy and Aerospace Force, in the eighth wave of Operation Nasr 2, under the symbol of Mubarak or Zeinab Kubra (S), in a combined operation using their missile and drone power, targeted and destroyed the C-RAM early warning radar system at Ali al-Salem base, as well as the gathering place of the criminal soldiers of the US terrorist army. The IRGC added that the strikes were conducted in response to the use of Kuwaiti land by the US for its military operation. The statement said, Once again, we remind the honourable people of Kuwait that these crimes are being committed by America using your soil against Muslim Iran. We expect you, Muslim brothers and sisters, to cleanse your country of aggressors and, by fulfilling your Islamic duty, preserve your historical honour and dignity, it said. The retaliation came in response to the completion of a new wave of military strikes against Iranian targets, targeting command centres, air defence systems, missile and drone capabilities, and coastal surveillance facilities. In a statement, CENTCOM said the strikes concluded at 9 pm ET on July 15 (Wednesday). The operation employed precision-guided munitions against multiple targets, including in Bandar Abbas, an important port city of Iran.
