Iranian officials issued escalating threats throughout the day, promising an "unimaginable" response to Israel's recent actions. IRGC commander Salami warned of retaliation exceeding all expectations. By afternoon, former foreign minister Kharrazi suggested Iran might increase its missile range and potentially alter its nuclear doctrine if seriously threatened. These statements followed reports of terrorist team neutralizations in Sistan and Baluchestan. Concurrently, Germany advised its citizens to leave Iran, reflecting growing regional tensions. Iranian media emphasized the country's defensive capabilities, particularly the Bavar 373 system. The rhetoric intensified by evening, with officials hinting at possible changes to Iran's nuclear posture, despite reiterating that religious edicts currently prevent nuclear weapons development.
