Iran has not yet set a date to resume negotiations, government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani confirmed, also noting the rising number of martyrs and wounded, as well as the damage caused by the Israeli-American aggression against the country.
Iranian government spokesperson Fatemeh Mahajarani stated on Tuesday that the country’s armed forces "are prepared and ready to respond to any aggression threatening Iran."
During her weekly press conference, she emphasized that Tehran "is still considering whether to resume negotiations, as no date for talks has been set yet," adding that a restart "may not happen soon."
She also made clear that "Iran will not allow enemies to so much as cast a speck of dust on the mantle of the Revolution’s Leader and the Republic," referring to attempts to undermine the unity of Iran’s leadership and the resilience of its political system following recent attacks.
Iran halting IAEA cooperation was fully legal
Regarding Iran’s decision to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Mahajarani asserted that the move was "fully legal under the provisions of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), which explicitly condemns attacks on our nuclear facilities," adding that Iran would "take whatever measures necessary to protect its national interests."
She further stressed that Iran has "consistently demonstrated its commitment to dialogue and honoring agreements, while it is the other parties who have failed to uphold their obligations."
Mohajerani emphasized that her country "relies on diplomacy to resolve its issues," noting that "the success of its regional relationships clearly reflects this approach."

Addressing the Israeli-American aggression against Iran, Mohajerani confirmed that it had "caused significant damage to nuclear facilities."
She further noted that Israeli attacks had damaged 3,500 residential units across the country, including 332 in Tehran alone.
On the matter of human casualties, the government spokesperson disclosed, based on forensic medicine statistics, that the Israeli attacks on Iran had killed 935 people, including 140 women and children. Mohajerani noted there were cases where entire families perished, with one family losing 12 members.
