Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said on Thursday night that Iran would launch an intense response if Israel struck Iranian soil in retaliation for Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel last week.

The official from the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism made the remarks while on U.S. soil during a CNN interview after he attended a U.N. meeting.

“In case the Israeli regime embarks on adventurism again and takes action against the interests of Iran, the next response from us will be immediate and at a maximum level,” he said. “It will be decisive. Our response will be decisive through the Swiss embassy in Tehran.”

“We have announced to the White House, sent a message to the White House and Washington, D.C., the administration, in which we reiterated that if the Israeli regime commits that grave error once again, our response will be decisive, definitive, and regretful for that,” he added. “We do not seek to create tension and crisis or increase such situations in the Middle East, and we sincerely hope that the Israeli regime does not repeat the previous egregious error.”

He claimed that the combined 300 missiles and drones fired by Iran were the “minimum” that the country could do.

“Why do we call it carried out at a minimum? Because it was geared towards two military targets, one the Innova Team Air Base and the other one an intelligence and information center,” he said. “We did not target economic and financial centers, civilian centers, only the two locations from which F-35 aircraft were flown, took off from there, and targeted the embassy building in the Golan.”

“This was our minimum response. But in case of a repeated adventure-seeking and adventurism of the Israeli regime, what will our maximum response be? I can only say that it will be carried out at a maximum level, and it will be regretful for them,” he continued. “The details have been planned by the armed forces of my country. However, I do hope that Israel does not commit a grave error in calculating this.”
