Tehran declares enemy residences legitimate targets as US amasses over 50,000 troops in the region
Tehran has declared the homes of US and Israeli officials and military commanders legitimate targets, in retaliation for repeated strikes on residential buildings in Iran that have reportedly killed nearly 2,000 civilians over the first month of the war.
More than 80,000 civilian sites have been destroyed or damaged in Iran since February 28, including more than 60,000 homes, according to the Iranian Red Crescent Society.
In retaliation, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced on Sunday that it would “begin bombing the US-Israeli officials’ and commanders’ homes in the region.”
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf earlier claimed the country’s forces are “waiting” for American troops, accusing the US of “secretly planning a ground invasion” while publicly talking about negotiations.
