On the 20th local time, Iran's Hattam Ambia Central Command issued a statement saying that intelligence shows that in order to cover up its defeat and try to seize benefits from this war, the United States has decided to take another hostile action against Iran with the acquiescence of certain Middle Eastern countries after holding a joint meeting with a European country. The statement warned that once the US makes any mistakes against Iran, all of its bases and interests in the region will be unreservedly hit continuously, effectively, and painfully. The statement also said that Iran warned countries in all regions that if they continue to pursue a “two-pronged policy” against Iran and cooperate with the enemy, the countries concerned will be regarded as accomplices; at that time, they will no longer be able to expect restraint or tolerance from Iran's armed forces.
