Iran’s army chief has warned that the US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites have given Tehran a “free hand” to "act against US interests and its army."The UN’s nuclear watchdog said on Monday that “very significant damage” was expected to have occurred at Iran's Fordow facility during the US bombardment.

What the administration has made clear is that it wants Iran to stop any development of nuclear weapons, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio warning on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that any retaliation against the U.S. or a rush toward building a nuclear weapon would “put the regime at risk.”
