Iran denies Axios report that messages were sent to US
An Iranian official said the country had not sent any messages to the United States, in response to an Axios report, Iran's Tasnim news agency said early on Thursday.
"No message has been sent from Iran to the US, nor will any response be given to US messages. Iran's armed forces have prepared themselves for a long war," the official, who was not named, was quoted as saying by Tasnim.
On Wednesday, Axios reported the Iranians had sent messages to the United States over the last few days but the U.S. did not respond, citing an American official and a second source.
