Iran is threatening to retaliate against U.S. or Israeli strikes by targeting critical energy infrastructure, according to comments published Friday by Iran’s state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency.

A senior security official told Tasnim that reports in U.S. media about possible American and Israeli attacks on Iranian infrastructure amounted to “a kind of madness,” warning Tehran has prepared “extensive response plans.”

According to Tasnim, the official said those plans include strikes targeting Israeli critical infrastructure and U.S. energy infrastructure across the region, adding Iran’s armed forces have both “the capability and the will” to carry them out.

The threat comes hours after the White House told Fox News Digital that President Donald Trump “is not going to stand by and allow this terrorist behavior to occur” and that “Iran will continue to pay until they come to the table in, what President Trump deems, a meaningful way.”

The White House statement came in response to reports of a possible expansion of U.S. military operations against Iran.
