‘Phase of unilateral self-restraint has ended,’ Iran tells US in indirect message: Official

An Iranian source has told Al Jazeera that Iran has sent a message to the United States, via Qatar, addressing the rising regional tensions.

In the message, Tehran told Washington that “the phase of unilateral self-restraint has ended.”

It also said any Israeli attack would meet an “unconventional response” that includes targeting Israeli infrastructure.

The indirect message also emphasised that Iran does not want a regional war, the official said.
