The Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Iranian Army warned that if US threats materialize, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) will prevent any oil exports from the region and target oil, gas, electricity, and economic infrastructure. The statement added that repeated US threats will expand the war beyond the region.
The Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters of the Iranian Army issued a statement Wednesday evening threatening to completely halt oil exports from the region and target oil, gas, electricity, and economic infrastructure if the United States follows through on its threats. The command, which oversees the IRGC's infrastructure and defense operations, said that "the repeated threats from the criminal United States and the terrorist army of that evil country will only expand the scope of the war in the region and beyond."
The statement is the latest in a series of Iranian warnings amid heightened US-Iran tensions. Over the past two months, The Zioneer has reported on multiple threats from IRGC commanders and the Khatam al-Anbiya command, including warnings to strike US bases and block the Strait of Hormuz. The recurring threats reflect Tehran's strategy of deterrence through economic and military escalation threats.
The source of the statement is the source affiliated with Iranian military outlets. The threat has not been independently verified by Western or Israeli sources, but follows the pattern of previous Iranian rhetoric.
