Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf threatened that US and Israeli assets in the region are no longer immune from attack, according to reports. Ghalibaf cited the naval blockade on Iran and continued Israeli activity in Lebanon as the rationale.
The threat from Speaker Ghalibaf, reported via Iranian state-aligned channels, echoes a pattern of escalating Iranian rhetorical posture amid heightened US-Iran tensions. Ghalibaf specifically stated that "the hand of our armed forces is free, as it always has been," hinting at possible military action. This marks the latest in a series of warnings from Iranian officials this week. As The Zioneer has reported, the Iranian parliament's security committee chief warned on June 10 that "this time, the war will not be limited to the region," and the army was placed on full alert following a threat from President Trump on June 9.
