Tehran to Trump: All regional energy facilities will be destroyed if Iran’s energy infrastructure hit

Iran has issued a stern warning to the United States, asserting that any attack on its energy infrastructure will be reciprocated with the destruction of all energy facilities across the region.

The spokesperson for Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters Lieutenant-Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaghari on Saturday responded to threats made by US President Donald Trump regarding strikes on Iran’s energy sector.

“As previously warned, all oil, economic, and energy facilities belonging to American-affiliated companies or those cooperating with them across the region will be completely destroyed and turned into ashes if the United States launches an attack on our oil, economic, or energy infrastructure,” he said.

Earlier, Zolfaghari had urged Islamic states to promptly warn the United States and Israel against attacks on Iran’s fuel and energy infrastructure.

“Otherwise, similar measures will be carried out across the region,” he said.
On February 28, the United States and the Israeli regime launched an unprovoked military assault on Iran, assassinating Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and several top Iranian military commanders.

Iran began to swiftly retaliate against the criminal aggression by launching barrages of missile and drone attacks on the Israeli-occupied territories as well as on the US bases in regional countries.

Iran has repeatedly emphasized that it only targets American positions and bases in the region and does not seek conflict with Arab countries.
