Threats of strikes on Europe and Ukraine
During the presentation, the Iranian state television IRINN demonstrated a map of potential missile strikes. The graphic marked Ukrainian cities—Kyiv, Odesa, and Lviv—as well as Rzeszów in Poland. The accompanying video text contained a statement regarding the possibility of destroying "American imperialists and their allies."
