In a few hours of the warning of US President Donald Trump, Iran threatened to attack the US-UK military base on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.

Earlier in the day,
Trump warned Iran That he would be bombarded like never, if he had not reached an agreement with the United States on his nuclear program. In his first term in 2018, he left the United States from a agreement that the Barak Obama administration has previously reached in 2015. The US withdrawal caused Iran to give up the agreement and to increase its nuclear program. Currently, it is believed to be close to developing nuclear weapons fuel.

On Sunday, Trump warned that Iran will be hit with “the bombing they have never seen before”, if no agreement will be reached. Earlier this month, he said he sent a letter to the Supreme Iranian leader Ayatollah Khamenei to start negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program. While Iran has maintained its nuclear program is entirely civilian,
so far has not accepted Trump’s offer for public discussions.

Threat of Iran in response to Trump’s warning

Just a few hours after Trump warned Iran, a superior Iranian official, as well as the Iranian state media, said the regime will attack the US-UK military base in Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, in response to any US attack.

Diego Garcia is the largest island in the Archipelago of the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean. The United Kingdom maintains a military base on the island that the British and US military operates jointly. Lately, the Trump administration has run long -term bombers, as a result of growing tensions in Western Asia.

A high Iranian official told Daily Telegraph that “there will be no distinction in the target of British or American forces if Iran is attacked from a base in the region.”

The official also said: “When the time comes, it will not matter if you are an American, British or Turkish soldier – you will be targeted if your base is used by Americans.”

Separately, the Iranian state media reported that the regime will attack the Diego Garcia base with ballistic missiles and suicidal drones in response to any “hostile action” by the United States. He mentioned newer versions of Khorramshahr rockets and Shahed drones as weapons that could be used in such attacks.

The Iranian media also said that other American and British facilities in the region could be attacked, such as a Bahrain naval base.

The “very bad” things will happen if Iran refuses an agreement, he warns Trump

In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly warned Iran about the consequences of not making an understanding.

Last week, Trump said that “very bad things will happen” if Iran did not reach a nuclear agreement with the United States.

“I sent them a letter recently and I said: you have to make a decision, in one way or another, and either we have to talk and talk, or very bad things will happen to Iran. I do not want it to happen. My great preference – and I do not say this by strength or weakness – my great preference is that I solve it.

Earlier this month said Trump in an interview that
He had sent a letter to Khamena Regarding the discussions for a nuclear agreement and warned that Iran must be prevented “in a way or another” to develop a nuclear weapon.

“I would prefer to negotiate a business. I am not sure everyone agrees with me, but we can do a business that would be as good as you win the military, but the time will happen -the time will come.
