IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebi said Wednesday that Iran’s security doctrine had shifted from defensive to offensive and asymmetrical.

Mohebi threatened to invade any Middle Eastern state that attacks Iran.

Araghchi made another diplomatic attempt conditional on strong evidence of Washington’s sincere desire to build trust and reach a just solution.

In a letter to the UN, Iran called the US naval blockade a flagrant violation of international law and the UN Charter.

"We announced that if a country attacked us, we would respond to it," he said. "Now, we say if a country attacks us, we will respond to it, and we will invade. Our doctrine will no longer be only offensive and will become asymmetrical. We will attack the enemy in such a way that it will understand the intensity of our action."— Hossein Mohebi, IRGC spokesperson, about Iran's security doctrine shifting from defensive to offensive and asymmetrical
