US Sanctions Spark Military Threats as Global Oil Markets Wobble

The United States has imposed its toughest sanctions on Iran, aiming to weaken its leadership and influence.

In response, Tehran has vowed a devastating military response, indicating its readiness to defend across land, sea, air, and cyberspace.

Major General Ali Abdollahi emphasized Iran's preparedness in a warning to adversaries.

The economic impact is already visible, with oil prices experiencing volatility. Iran's parliament speaker, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, highlighted the toll on the nation’s economy, urging strategic plans to withstand what he described as 'economic and cognitive warfare' by the U.S. and Israel.
