Iran warns US against ‘adventurous action’

02-08-2026 05:59 PM


Ammon News - Iran warned this weekend against any “adventurous action” by the US and said it would retaliate decisively if American forces follow through on President Donald Trump’s threats of fresh attacks on Iranian targets.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s comments in separate phone calls on Saturday with senior Turkish and Pakistani officials came just hours after Kuwait’s army said it destroyed hostile drones launched by Iran against several vital facilities.

Speaking to Pakistan’s Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Araghchi said Iran would respond decisively to any “aggression” and discussed the consequences of “destabilizing actions” by the US, as well as prospects for heightened regional insecurity, according to Araghchi’s Telegram account.

Trump later announced that the United States and Israel had agreed to hold off on new strikes on Iran provided a deal to end the months-long conflict is “rapidly” reached.

Trump said the US was “locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran,” but added that Tehran and other Middle Eastern countries had asked him to hold off on fresh strikes.

“Based on this request, I have agreed, for the future benefit of the WORLD and, likewise, the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, to cancel the attack, subject to being able to rapidly make a DEAL,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.

At a cabinet meeting on Friday at the Camp David retreat, Trump said he believed US negotiators, including his son-in-law Jared Kushner, special envoy Steve Witkoff and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, could still reach a deal with Iran.

But Trump also said he was losing faith in the Iranians, saying “they break their word so often” — a claim that Tehran has frequently leveled at Washington — and said he would be “hitting them.”
