Iran Threatens Retaliatory Strike on US-Allied Middle Eastern Countries
Iran has issued a warning to US-allied Middle Eastern countries, threatening to target them if they allow Israel to use their military bases or airspace for a retaliatory strike. The American Wall Street Journal reported this development, stating that Tehran has conveyed these threats through diplomatic channels.
Arab officials have revealed that Jordan, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar have been warned by Iran to refrain from facilitating any potential attacks by the US or Israel. These countries have informed the Biden administration about their unwillingness to participate in any military actions against Iran.
Iran’s recent missile attack, launched on October 1, was in response to the assassination of several key figures. The Israeli army confirmed damage to their air bases and preparations for retaliation against Iran are underway. However, US President Joe Biden has urged Israel to respond proportionately to the situation.
Despite tensions escalating in the region, the US is closely monitoring the situation and advocating for a diplomatic resolution to prevent further escalation.
