This statement came after the US carried out new multi-hour strikes targeting central and southern Iran.
The US military said it struck dozens of Iranian military targets for the second night in a row.
A US military spokesman said the new strikes came after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps shelled another commercial vessel on a waterway over which Washington and Tehran have made conflicting claims regarding the state of maritime navigation. The channel is key for Tehran as a leverage in negotiations.
Gulf countries again came under fire. Tehran said it launched a new wave of strikes on US bases in the region - in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain. Sirens were activated in Bahrain, while the military in Kuwait said it was dealing with "hostile aerial targets," and Jordanian forces intercepted four missiles in their airspace.
Brent crude and US oil prices rose more than 3% on Sunday following the attacks that occurred over the weekend.
