“Any level and type of enemy threat must receive an immediate, effective response without geographical limitation,” Khamenei said, according to state broadcaster Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB).

Khamenei also ordered a comprehensive update of Iran’s military target database to bring all material and non-material assets of US and Israel within reach of the country's armed forces.
The directives come amid growing concerns over renewed hostilities between Iran and the United States, as Washington maintains its military buildup in the Middle East while diplomatic efforts to prevent another escalation continue.
Khamenei warned that if Iran were to be attacked again, the country's armed forces and people would determine "when and under what conditions the fighting would end."
During the meeting, senior commanders briefed Khamenei on military readiness along the Persian Gulf coast, the Strait of Hormuz, the Sea of Oman and Iran's northwestern and southeastern borders, according to state media.
Khamenei also stressed the importance of strengthening military intelligence, developing modern defense capabilities and supporting the livelihoods of military personnel.
His directives come as regional powers continue efforts to revive stalled negotiations between Tehran and Washington.
