Iran’s top security official warned on Thursday that Tehran could strike military bases involved in any renewed US offensive against Iran, including bases in Europe.
Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, said on US social media company X that “every military base involved in the aggression” would be a legitimate target, extending the warning “from West Asia to Europe.”
If the US launches another war against Iran, every military base involved in the aggression—from West Asia to Europe—will be a legitimate target for Iran’s lethal strikes.
NO SAFE DISTANCE. NO SAFE HAVEN. NO IMMUNITY.

“No safe distance. No safe haven. No immunity,” he wrote.
The warning followed remarks earlier on Wednesday by Kioumars Heydari, deputy chief of the Iranian Armed Forces’ General Staff, who said Tehran was prepared to strike beyond the region if attacked again.
Heydari told Iranian broadcaster IRIB that US bases and interests were within range of Iranian missiles and drones. He said countries that allowed aircraft to attack Iran from their territory could face retaliatory strikes.
In a separate interview with Lebanon's Al Mayadeen TV, Rezaei said Iran will not allow even a single particle of enriched nuclear material to leave the country and there will be consequences in the event of any new US strikes on the Islamic Republic.
Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei issued a directive that the country's enriched uranium should not be sent abroad, two senior Iranian sources said in May.
"We need the enriched material to design ships and submarines that work on nuclear energy", Rezaei said, adding that Tehran has informed Moscow that its enriched nuclear material will remain in the country and "we will use it ourselves".
Russia has previously offered to remove uranium from Iran as part of a potential deal to ease US concerns but said it was for Tehran to decide whether to remove it or not.
Debris from intercepted Houthi missiles falls in Saudi Arabia’s Makkah region
Saudi Arabia said early on Thursday that debris from two intercepted ballistic missiles had fallen in Sabuhah village in the kingdom’s Makkah region.
The missiles were launched by Yemen’s Houthi group, said Saudi Civil Defence.
Saudi-led coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki also announced that its air defences intercepted and destroyed a drone in the kingdom’s Eastern Province.
On Wednesday, the coalition reported intercepting and destroying five missiles and two drones.
Three cruise missiles were launched toward the Riyadh region, while two ballistic missiles were intercepted in western Saudi Arabia, it said. The two drones were intercepted in the Mecca and southern regions.
US' JD Vance weighs direct talks with Iranian security official to end war: report\
US Vice President JD Vance is considering holding face-to-face talks with a senior Iranian security official as Washington seeks a way out of the war with Iran, The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing US and Middle Eastern officials.
President Donald Trump has recently signalled to aides and foreign counterparts that he is open to Vance taking the lead in renewed negotiations with Tehran, giving the vice president authority to pursue diplomatic efforts, according to the report.
Discussions about a possible meeting remain at an early stage, with no date set. However, Washington and Tehran are communicating through mediators and regional allies about the next steps, according to the report.
The Journal reported that Vance sent a letter in October to Iran’s Mohsen Rezaei, the secretary of the country’s Supreme National Security Council, requesting a meeting.
The move carries significant political risks for Vance, who could become the public face of negotiations if they fail to secure an agreement, the report said.
A successful outcome, however, could strengthen his standing as the official who helped bring an end to an unpopular conflict.
The report also said Trump had privately questioned the June framework agreement negotiated with Vance's involvement, reportedly arguing that it gave Iran time to recover and generate oil revenues before a US naval blockade was imposed.
A White House official rejected claims that Trump had second thoughts about the agreement, saying negotiators had acted in good faith.
Vance has also publicly linked the war to Republicans' poor performance in last weeks’ midterm elections, noting growing political pressure on the administration to find a way to end the conflict.
