Iran says it is ‘coordinating with Russia’ and warns that the US should expect ‘heavy consequences’ following Trumps strikes on its nuclear sites.

An Iranian state TV anchor has warned that up to 50,000 American soldiers wil be returned to Washington in ‘coffins’ after Donald Trump raised the possibility of regime change.

Ebrahim Zolfaqari, Iran’s military command spokesperson called Trump a gambler warning: “you may start this war, but we will be the ones to end it”

According to the Mail Online reports: State TV anchor Mehdi Khanalizadeh accused Trump of choosing to ‘spill the blood of your soldiers’, before adding: ‘The US president in the Oval Office chose to take delivery of the coffins of up to 50,000 US soldiers in Washington.’

Iran earlier warned that the United States should expect ‘heavy consequences’ for striking its nuclear sites, issuing a threat that its entry into the conflict with Israel will ‘expand the scope of legitimate targets’.

Trump declared last night that ‘monumental damage’ has been done ‘to all nuclear sites in Iran’ as he called for a regime change in the Islamic Republic.

The US president wrote on Truth Social that satellite images he obtained showed the Iranian nuclear facilities were ‘obliterated,’ and noted that the most damage ‘took place far below ground level.’
