Abbas Araghchi, Iran's foreign minister, has warned of 'everlasting consequences' after US President Donald Trump said that 'great American Warriors' had conducted a 'very successful attack.'

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer also took to X, labelling Iran's nuclear programme as 'a grave threat to international security.'
