Iranian General Mohsin Rezai issued a stern ultimatum to the Washington administration. Rezai announced that the US has 48 hours to return to diplomacy, otherwise an all-out war would begin.
"Americans have only 48 hours to return to diplomacy. After that, the possibility of diplomacy will end and the time for an all-out war will begin, with devastating consequences for the entire region and the rest of the world."
General Rezai's statement contains a direct threat targeting the US if tensions in the region escalate.
