Iran threatens Gulf states infrastructure if US attacks vital sites

TEHRAN, July 19 (YPA) – Iran has warned it could target critical infrastructure and facilities in the Gulf region, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports, as well as the ports of Fujairah and Jebel Ali, should the United States launch attacks against Iranian infrastructure, a military source told the Fars News Agency.

In a related development, a military source told the “Middle East Spectator” website that Tehran has commenced the implementation of a plan to destroy regional energy and water desalination infrastructure—including plants in Kuwait—unless US military actions cease.

 The website added that Iran is utilizing precision ballistic missiles following the degradation of US defense systems, asserting that a majority of US military bases in Jordan sustained severe damage from previous Iranian strikes.

These reciprocal threats follow escalating tensions triggered by Washington’s targeting of civilian and economic facilities in southern Iran, which prompted a military response from Tehran against US bases and installations in the region.
