TEHRAN (Sputnik) - Iran will respond with long-term strikes to the US attack, even if it is short-term, Majid Mousavi, the commander of the aerospace forces of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), said on Thursday.
"We will respond with long-term strikes to enemy operations, even if they are short-term," the SNN broadcaster quoted Mousavi as saying.

On Wednesday, Axios reported, citing three sources privy to the matter, that the US Central Command (CENTCOM) prepared a plan to conduct a "short and powerful" wave of strikes on Iran as negotiations for a peace settlement stall.
