伊朗外交部長穆罕默德·賈瓦德·扎里夫（Javad Zarif）發推特表示：
Iran took & concluded proportionate measures in self-defense under Article 51
of UN Charter targeting base from which cowardly armed attack against our
citizens & senior officials were launched.
We do not seek escalation or war, but will defend ourselves against any
aggression.
大意：
伊朗根據聯合國憲章第５１條採取自衛措施，針對欺負我們小老百姓和官員的做反擊
我們不想要升高戰爭的層級，但是會針對任何侵略進行防衛
