The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned that any US attack on bridges and infrastructure in Iran would result in damage to 'highly important' investments of American companies in the region, according to an IRGC statement. The threat is the latest in a series of IRGC warnings amid heightened tensions, including a warning to Jordan earlier today to expel US bases.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a fresh threat on Friday night, warning that if the United States attacks bridges and infrastructure in Iran, it will target 'highly important' investments of American companies in the region. The statement did not specify which companies or locations, but the IRGC has previously threatened US economic interests.
The threat follows the IRGC's warning to Jordan earlier today to expel US military bases from its territory or face a severe attack, as The Zioneer reported at 12:47 Jerusalem. That warning was part of a broader campaign by the IRGC to pressure regional states against cooperating with the US military.
The IRGC has issued a series of escalating threats over the past month, including warnings to Gulf states against hosting US bases, and threats to strike US bases in the region if Iran is attacked. The new threat appears to extend the IRGC's targeting to include civilian economic assets of US companies operating in the region. No specific military measures or timelines were detailed, and the claim remains unverified from a single source.
