An Iranian state news source issued a stern warning to the United States, suggesting that a “major risk” looms as American forces resumed strikes on Iran against strategic targets.
If the USA are betting on controlling oil and lowering gas prices ahead of the World Football Championship, they should understand: simultaneous military pressure and negotiations with Iran — this is a major risk,” said Nour News, an outlet affiliated with Iran’s Supreme National Security Council. “Any misstep could turn Trump into a symbol of a costly and bitter mistake, the memory of which will be painfully relived at every World Cup.
The situation escalated when U.S. forces launched attacks targeting missile sites and Iranian vessels involved in laying mines. According to the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), these actions were executed as self-defense measures by the U.S. troops to counter potential threats from Iranian forces. Captain Tim Hawkins, spokesman for CENTCOM, confirmed the operations aimed at missile launch sites and Iranian boats attempting to set mines.
Details of ongoing developments are awaited as this story unfolds.
