US President Donald Trump is set to hold a key meeting today after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued 'stronger, heavier' threats following recent strikes near the Strait of Hormuz.
Efforts to revive diplomacy between Tehran and Washington remain uncertain, with both sides working towards a memorandum of understanding but disagreeing over wording linked to Iran's nuclear programme and the lifting of sanctions.
A senior spokesperson for Iran's armed forces warned that if the US and Israel bombed Iran again, the response would be 'much heavier and stronger' that could 'extend beyond regional borders', according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
Meanwhile, internet access in Iran has begun to recover following a months-long blackout, with online activity partially restored after weeks of heavy restrictions across the country.
At least 31 people were killed in Israeli air strikes in Lebanon on Tuesday, according to the country's health ministry, in one of the deadliest days since a ceasefire came into effect in April.
