The head of Iran's Basij militia today dismissed threats by US President Donald Trump as "psychological warfare", local media reported.

"Trump's statements against Iran are psychological warfare. He is not in a position to act against Iran," said General Gholam Hossein Gheypour, according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.

His comments followed an all-caps salvo from Trump on Twitter yesterday, in which he wrote: "never, ever threaten the united states again or you will suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before."
