Tehran, March 10 (Xinhua) — Iran will take "proportionate and immediate" retaliatory measures if the United States launches strikes against Iranian infrastructure, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf warned on Tuesday.

On social media, he stated that Iran would act on the principle of “an eye for an eye” without any exceptions.

“If they start a war against infrastructure, then we will undoubtedly also strike at infrastructure,” M. B. Ghalibaf emphasized.

Meanwhile, Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani noted on social media that the Strait of Hormuz "will either become a strait of peace and prosperity for all, or a strait of defeat and suffering for warmongers."

On Monday, US President Donald Trump vowed on the social media platform TruthSocial that the United States would strike Iran "20 times harder" if "Iran does anything to stop oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz." –0–
