Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi held separate phone calls with senior officials from Turkey, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia on Saturday, warning against any US military action and stating that Iran is fully prepared to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Araqchi spoke with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan, according to reports. Another call reportedly involved Pakistan’s Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, though some accounts identify Pakistan’s counterpart as a foreign minister rather than the army chief.

In these conversations, Araqchi warned against any “adventurous action” by the US and said Iran would respond decisively if American forces follow through on US President Donald Trump’s threats of fresh attacks on Iranian targets, according to Araqchi’s Telegram account.

Araqchi also discussed with Turkish and Pakistani officials the consequences of “destabilising actions” by the US and prospects for heightened regional insecurity, while telling the Saudi foreign minister that any attacks by the US and Israel, or participation by regional countries in such actions, would be met with a “proportionate response.”

Araqchi said Iran was fully prepared to protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The phone calls took place after Kuwait’s army said it had destroyed hostile drones launched by Iran against several vital facilities.

Separate calls

Araqchi spoke with officials from Turkey, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia, though reports differ on the Pakistani counterpart.

All will be burned to ashes.

Nournews, a media outlet affiliated with Iran’s top security body, said on Saturday that US attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure would prompt Iranian strikes on oilfields in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, as well as gas fields of Qatar and Israel.

Tensions between the US and Iran have escalated, with the US military expected to carry out new attacks on Iran. President Trump said on Friday at a cabinet meeting at the Camp David retreat that he believed US negotiators, including his son-in-law Jared Kushner, special envoy Steve Witkoff, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, could still reach a deal with Iran. The calls and warnings come amid rising regional insecurity.
