"If the recent threats of the empty-headed US president to strike the infrastructure of the Islamic Republic of Iran with the forces of the aggressive army of this country are realized, everything that has so far remained intact due to Iran's restraint, that is, the entire infrastructure in the region, will be crushed by the steel strikes of the powerful armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran," the Fars news agency quoted the statement.
