Iran warns US of new weapons and targets, ready for long war

Iran's Revolutionary Guards warned the US on Monday against further attacks, threatening to deploy new weapons and target previously un-struck locations if Washington acts again. The group also stated Iran is prepared for a prolonged war. The IRGC statement follows recent offensives that have eased, though the conflict has spilled into Yemen and tensions remain over the Strait of Hormuz closure. Iran has sent Washington a list of seven conditions via Qatar for reopening the strait, including ending the war, releasing frozen funds, and lifting the naval blockade. US President Donald Trump said he is in "deciding mode" and proposed three options: "wiping Iran out," economic strangulation, or making a deal. He expressed openness to meeting Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at the UN General Assembly, though no meeting is officially confirmed.
