Iran claims right to strike US military facilities in the UAE
The Central Headquarters of Iran’s Joint Armed Forces Command stated that Tehran considers it a lawful right to strike American military facilities located in cities across the United Arab Emirates.
Warning to civilians near bases
The Iranian command also urged residents of the UAE to avoid areas near US military bases, ports, and depots.
Officials advised civilians to take precautionary measures and evacuate nearby locations to prevent potential harm in the event of escalation.
Rising tensions in the Persian Gulf
Analysts say such statements indicate growing regional tensions in the Persian Gulf.
Threats against US military facilities could increase the risk of military escalation, particularly amid broader geopolitical conflicts across the Middle East.
