A top adviser to Iran Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Iran “must launch missile strikes” against US Navy ships in response to President Trump’s decision to bomb nuclear facilities in the Islamic Republic Saturday.


“Following America’s attack on the Fordow nuclear installation, it is now our turn,” warned Hossein Shariatmadari, the editor-in-chief of the Kayhan newspaper, according to CNN.
“Without hesitation or delay, as a first step we must launch missile strikes on the American naval fleet based in Bahrain and simultaneously close the Strait of Hormuz to American, British, German, and French shipping,” read a quote attributed to Shariatmadari, posted on Kayhan’s Telegram channel.
Shariatmadari is well-known in Iran and has previously identified himself as Khamenei’s “representative,” according to CNN. Kayhan is widely considered the publication closest to the theocratic regime.

Trump warned after the strikes that any retaliation against the US from Iran would be “MET WITH FORCE FAR GREATER THAN WHAT WAS WITNESSED TONIGHT.”
