Iran has warned enemies against any potential attack on its territory, saying it is prepared to use its underground missile cities to impose a heavy cost on the US after Donald Trump ramped up his rhetoric against Tehran.<\/p>\n
“Iran has achieved a level of active deterrence in which any violation of its sovereignty will be met with a severe response,” the General Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces said in a statement on Sunday marking the anniversary of the Islamic Republic’s foundation.<\/p>\n
The state-run English newspaper Tehran Times also reported that “Iranian missiles are loaded onto launchers in all underground missile cities and are ready for launch.”<\/p>\n
“Opening the Pandora’s box will come at a heavy cost for the US government and its allies,” the report added, citing information it had obtained.<\/p>\n
