Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, Iran has issued a fresh warning signalling a strong response to any potential attacks on its critical infrastructure. The country’s military command, Khatam al-Anbiya, stated on Sunday that any strike on Iran’s fuel and energy facilities would trigger retaliation against U.S. and allied assets across the region.
According to the statement, Iran would target key sectors, including energy installations, information technology systems, and desalination facilities belonging to its adversaries if its own infrastructure is damaged.
The warning comes shortly after Donald Trump gave Iran a 48-hour ultimatum to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global shipping route. He reportedly cautioned that failure to comply could result in devastating strikes on Iran’s power generation facilities.
The Strait of Hormuz plays a crucial role in the global oil supply chain, and recent disruptions linked to ongoing regional conflict have already raised concerns in international markets.
Iran’s military emphasised that it had previously issued similar warnings, reiterating that any harm to its energy resources would be met with decisive countermeasures targeting the strategic infrastructure of its opponents.
Experts believe that such strong rhetoric on both sides could further intensify instability in the region, potentially affecting global energy security and economic stability.
