Dror Blazda (Channel 14) and Yair Goldblatt reported that the United States conveyed a message to Tehran via Qatar: if Iran escalates further, Washington will target energy and oil infrastructure, including Kharg Island. The warning signals a potential shift in US targeting strategy from military objectives to infrastructure critical to Iran's economy. The Zioneer has previously reported on the ongoing US air campaign against Iranian military sites and on President Trump's threats to target bridges and power plants. It remains unclear whether Iran has formally received or responded to the message.
