The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned that if the US and Israel attack Iran again, the fighting will expand beyond the Middle East.

The IRGC claimed that previous clashes did not see Iran using its full potential.

US President Donald Trump said he abandoned a planned attack on Iran on May 19 at the request of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baqai stated that Tehran is ready for any scenario and intends to spring "new surprises" on the other side.

On February 28, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced a preemptive strike on Iran, with Trump confirming US involvement.

Iran retaliated by firing dozens of ballistic missiles at Israel, activating Israeli air defense systems.

On March 1, Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was reported killed in the attacks.

Iran then struck neighboring countries hosting US military bases, leading to temporary airspace closures and serious disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz.

On April 8, Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Tehran. Initial talks were held in Islamabad, but a second meeting scheduled for April 22 did not take place.
