While the truce between the United States and Iran has been extended, tensions continue to prevail between the two nations. On Wednesday, the Islamic Republic issued a fresh warning to its neighbouring Gulf states, stating that if they allow their bases to be used for attacking Tehran, “they can bid farewell to oil production.”
In a statement published in state media, the commander of the Guards' aerospace force, Majid Mousavi, issued the fresh warning to neighbouring states, urging them not to allow American forces to use their land to launch attacks on Iran.
Iran's fresh remarks come amid heightened regional tensions following the February 28 joint strikes launched by the United States and Israel.
This is not the first warning Tehran has issued to its Gulf neighbours. States such as Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates found themselves pulled into the US and Israel's war on Iran.
