Iranian General Mohsen Rezaei gave the United States a 48-hour deadline to return to diplomacy. Rezaei announced that after this period, the possibility of diplomacy would end and an all-out war would begin.
"The Americans have only 48 hours to return to diplomacy. After this period, the possibility of diplomacy will end and the time for an all-out war will begin, with devastating consequences for the entire region and the rest of the world."
General Rezaei's statement came amid rising tensions in the Middle East and a regional crisis that closely concerns the Islamic world. The Iranian commander warned that the war that would otherwise begin would have devastating consequences across the region and the world.
