IRGC threatens 'harsh response' to US retaliation strike in Iran: 'soon, a heavy response will be given to the enemy's hostile actions'

The United States has carried out multiple strikes inside Iran after President Trump vowed to respond to the downing of a US Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz. While Trump initially said the US "must respond" to the incident, he later appeared to downplay its significance, telling The Wall Street Journal that it "wasn't a big deal" and emphasizing that "the pilot is fine." Both crew members were rescued unharmed. The US military said the latest strikes were a proportional response to Iranian actions, marking a further escalation in already heightened regional tensions.
