Iranian and Taliban leaders warn US against military conflict with Iran

Senior Iranian military officials and the Taliban have issued warnings to the United States about the consequences of a potential war with Iran. A top Iranian general directly warned the U.S. president that a new conflict would be a 'lesson,' while the Taliban suggested it might provide military aid to Iran if a war breaks out.

Separately, Russia has stated its support for Iran's sovereignty, and Reza Pahlavi, an Iranian opposition figure, has called for U.S. military action against the Iranian government.
