The Iranian regime will face “severe consequences” if it attacks Americans, including individuals who have been sanctioned by Tehran over the 2020 targeted killing of Qasem Soleimani, according to a top White House adviser.

After Iran issued sanctions against Americans on Jan. 8, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan issued the warning in a Jan. 9 statement from the White House.
