A senior official of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and a military adviser to the Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, Mohsan Razneji, warned on Friday evening United States that an Iranian "full-scale offensive" would follow if they continued to attack Iran.
"If the American attacks continue for another two or three days, we will enter the phase of full-scale offensive operations," Razneyi said, state television reported.
His statement came after the US military has been bombing Iran for seven days in a row.
"No political border will be safe once the Iranian offensive begins," Rezaei said, adding that the United States would have to pay reparations for attacks on civilian infrastructure.
The US military renewed attacks on Iran, which retaliated with attacks on US bases in the Persian Gulf states, including Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain.
Tehran says that the attacks on American bases are self-defense, which is allowed by international law.
The US military said on Saturday it had carried out a seventh straight night of bombing raids on Iran since President Donald Trump declared a temporary ceasefire agreement "finished".
In a statement published on IX, the US Central Command (Centcom) wrote that its forces "hit surveillance sites, military logistics infrastructure, underground weapons storage and naval facilities."
"U.S. forces used fighter jets, drones and warships in addition to other assets," the statement said.
Iran claims it has responded by targeting US allies in the region, including Kuwait - whose military said the country's air defenses were "facing hostile missile and drone attacks" following "Iranian aggression".
Jordan's military also said it intercepted 10 Iranian missiles fired into its airspace overnight. No damage was reported.
