Tehran: First Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref says recent US crimes have changed Iran's security and defense doctrine, warning that Tehran's future response will be 'asymmetric' and 'multilayered.'

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, in a post on his X account on Thursday, Aref stated that the new US crimes against the Iranian nation have altered Iran's security equations and defense doctrine. He emphasized that moving forward, Iran's response will not only be 'asymmetric' and 'multilayered,' but also focused on 'denying security to the aggressor.'

Aref further cautioned that Americans should prepare for challenging times by stockpiling gasoline and fuel, as he predicted dark months ahead for the US economy.
