- Khamenei ordered a "maximum" response to any U.S. attack and said that response would have no "geographic limits."
- Israel was explicitly included in the warning, with CBS’s live-update headline stating that Khamenei warned the U.S. and Israel against new attacks.
Why it matters: For the U.S. and Israel, the material distinction is the stated scope of Iran’s response: Khamenei’s "maximum" order has no "geographic limits," and CBS explicitly grouped both countries in the warning. The second-order effect is a warning not confined to one country, rather than a documented operation or deadline.
