Iran's army spokesman said any new attack by an enemy would be met with new weapons, new methods of warfare, and operations in new arenas that would surprise the attacker. The remarks were carried by Tasnim news agency. Al Jazeera also reported the warning, quoting the spokesman as saying that if the 'enemy' were to attack again, they would face new methods of warfare.

The statement comes amid heightened regional tensions, though the spokesman did not specify recent incidents or name any particular adversary. Iranian military statements of this type have been issued periodically in response to strikes or threats against the country or its allies.

The army spokesman's comments represent an official deterrent message from Iran's military. Such statements typically aim to signal readiness without disclosing operational details. No immediate reaction from other governments was reported in connection with the latest remarks. The spokesman did not provide examples of the new weapons or arenas referenced.
