Iran's War Headquarters warned that any US attack on Iranian nuclear sites would constitute an expansion of the conflict, according to a statement. The warning comes amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran.
Iran's War Headquarters issued a statement Wednesday warning the United States that attacking Iranian nuclear sites would be considered an expansion of the war. The statement, reported by The Zioneer's own monitored channels, did not specify a direct consequence but framed such a strike as escalating the conflict beyond existing levels. The warning follows a series of escalating exchanges between the two countries, though this is the first time the War Headquarters has explicitly addressed the nuclear dimension of a potential US strike. The Zioneer has tracked previous Iranian threats, all of which remained at the rhetorical level without confirmed action.
