JAKARTA - The supreme commander of the Iranian Army Major General Amir Hatami said there would be a "hard response" to the US attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.

"Throughout our history, we have faced America many times. Every time they try to attack us, they always get a hard reply," Amir Hatami said in a video recording reported by CNN, Monday, June 23.

"We will fight, we will fight for happiness. We have lost many martyrs, but we will fight with strength and courage. You must believe in our strength," he said.

Hatami, one of Iran's most senior generals, was appointed to the post less than a week ago, as Iran reshuffled its military leadership to fill vacant positions after Israel killed several senior figures in its recent attacks.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi previously said the United States should take full responsibility for the consequences of the attack on its nuclear facilities.

President Donald Trump said the US had completed a "very successful attack" on three nuclear facility points in Iran, Saturday, June 21.

In an upload on Truth Social, President Trump stated that all US aircraft had come out of Iran's airspace, amid rising tensions in the Middle East.
