Iran has sharpened its attack against the United States, warning of strong retaliation if confronted with force and demanding reparations for recent military strikes.
The conflict began on February 28 following coordinated strikes by the US and Israel against Tehran and other regional targets.
A ceasefire agreement brokered through backchannel diplomacy in early April has largely halted direct large-scale strikes, but both sides have stopped short of declaring a formal end to hostilities.
Iran has accused Washington of engaging in 'low-value psychological games' and urged US officials to 'climb out of the pit that the child-killer has dug for them.'
The 'child killer' jibe at Trump comes in response to the bombing of a Minab school where an alleged US missile killed 165 girls.
Iran claims to be a proponent of peace and friendship in the world, but if anyone speaks to this nation in the language of force, they will receive a harsh slap,' Tabatabaei said.
