The Iranian state TV channel IRINN published a statement regarding its readiness to launch attacks on the territory of Ukraine in the event of a new escalation by the United States. Potential destinations include Kyiv, Lviv and Odessa. The channel showed a map of Europe with pictures of explosions in its territory. The photo was accompanied by an inscription in Persian: "Our missiles will reach Europe and we will destroy the American imperialists and their allies." In August, Iran's supreme leader adviser Mohsen Razai already announced preparations for attacks on targets in Ukraine. Then he linked Tehran's intentions to an attack on an Iranian cargo ship in the Caspian Sea. The response was delayed after Kiev called the incident a mistake.
