Amid Ira's threat, Trump announced he is considering "winding down" military operations, claiming the US is "very close" to meeting its victory plan.

Iran is making threats of a different kind. On Friday (March 20) a top military spokesman warned that “parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations” worldwide would no longer be safe for its enemies. The warning has come almost three weeks into U.S.-Israeli strikes that have led to killing of Tehran's top leaders, including its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Speaking to Iranian state television Gen Abolfazl Shekarchi said “From now on, based on the information we have about you, even parks, recreational areas and tourist destinations anywhere in the world will no longer be safe for you.”

He said that US and Iranian officials could be pursued beyond active conflict zone.

“We are watching your cowardly officials and commanders, pilots and wicked soldiers,” Shekarchi said, adding that “promenades, resorts and tourist and entertainment centres” would also be targeted.
