In a statement on US social media company X, Iranian government spokeswoman Fatemeh Mohajerani said national security remains the government’s top priority and that all affairs are being managed carefully.

Regional escalations have continued to rage since Israel and the US launched an offensive against Iran on Feb. 28. Tehran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq and Gulf countries hosting US military assets, causing casualties and damage to infrastructure while disrupting global markets and aviation.
