00:03Immediate, impactful, and without any geographical limits.
00:07That's how Iran's leader, Ayatollah Said Mushtaba Khamenei, has instructed the country's commanders
00:12to respond to any new potential attacks by the U.S. or Israel.
00:16During a Saturday meeting with three of Iran's top commanders, Ayatollah Khamenei stated that
00:22Tehran must upgrade its military tactics and doctrine to ensure any future war involves
00:28strikes against both physical and non-physical American targets.
00:32An official readout did not specify what new areas Iran intends to target, nor whether
00:37drastic policy shifts such as pursuing intercontinental ballistic missiles or nuclear weapons are under
00:44consideration.
00:45Nevertheless, Iranian military units have already begun following the leader's new directive.
00:51The IRGC spokesperson stated on Sunday that the Iranian military has begun identifying new
00:56targets, while the spokesperson for Iran's army noted that the country possesses the capability
01:02to strike targets outside West Asia.
01:05This comes as American politicians have continued to threaten Iran with a new wave of aggression
01:11in recent weeks.
01:12Before the Trump administration launched the 40-day war on February 28, Iran's previous leader,
01:19Ayatollah Said Ali Khamenei, had vowed that any new conflict would become a regional war.
01:26He was assassinated on the first day of the war, but Iranian forces made good on his promise
01:32by battering U.S. military installations in at least eight West Asian countries.
