Iran's armed forces have prepared an updated list of potential targets covering locations in the region and beyond that could be used by the United States or Israel, deputy chief of staff Keyoumars Heydari said.

Heydari said the list was awaiting formal communication to army and Revolutionary Guards commanders, adding that the confrontation with the United States had become a regional war.

"Our response has no geographical limitations," he said, adding that if an aircraft flew from any country to bomb Iran, Iranian forces would be authorized to strike similar locations in that country.
