Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi questioned US President Donald Trump's intentions after Trump threatened to target Iranian infrastructure, suggesting that such actions would regress the region to a time without oil production. In a post on X, Araghchi highlighted the stark difference between the present and the so-called 'Stone Age,' emphasizing the importance of oil in the Middle East. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian condemned attacks on hospitals and pharmaceutical companies, labeling them as crimes against humanity and urging international organizations to respond.
