Iran’s military vows retaliation in response to Trump’s threats

(AFP): Iran's Revolutionary Guards on Sunday threatened a "decisive" response to any attack, after US President Donald Trump ordered a wave of air strikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels and warned Tehran to stop backing the group.

On Saturday, Trump said the United States had launched "decisive and powerful military action" to end the Huthi threat to Red Sea shipping, and warned Iran's support for the rebels "must end immediately". A Huthi health official said the strikes had killed 31 people.

Iranian Guards chief Hossein Salami denounced Trump's threats in a televised speech on Sunday, adding that "Iran will not wage war, but if anyone threatens, it will give appropriate, decisive and conclusive responses".
