Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has claimed that Iran used only a "part" of its power in its attack on regional energy infrastructure. He added that they have decided to refrain after calling for de-escalation, but warned that there will be no restraint if their infrastructure is hit again.
Our response to Israel's attack on our infrastructure employed a fraction of our power. The ONLY reason for restraint was respect for requested de-escalation.

ZERO restraint if our infrastructures are struck again.
Any end to this war must address damage to our civilian sites.
"The only reason for restraint was to respect the required de-escalation. There will be ZERO restraint if our infrastructures are hit again," he wrote in a post on social media, as he called for compensation for damaged Iranian infrastructure.
Previously, the Iranian military had warned that it "will not stop until the complete destruction" of relevant energy infrastructure if Iran's energy facilities were targeted again.
But a call by US President Donald Trump to Israel not to target Iran's energy infrastructure appears to have calmed things down.
