Iran Issues Threats Against Regional Infrastructure in Bid to Deter US Attacks

Iran has issued stern warnings to regional countries, including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar, that it will target their oil, electricity, and water infrastructure if they fail to convince Donald Trump to halt U.S. attacks on Iran.

Citing a senior Iranian official, Reuters reported that these warnings included potential attacks on 'energy facilities, refineries, electricity grids, water infrastructure, transport networks, and oil fields' belonging to Washington's closest Arab allies in the region.

Araqchi, Iran's Foreign Minister, has been at the forefront of these diplomatic efforts, speaking with his counterparts in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar, as well as Pakistan's army chief.
