Iranian Military: "Any Attack on Iranian Infrastructure Will Result in Strikes on All Regional Infrastructure"

On the sixth day of the armed conflict over control of the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian military warned that it would retaliate against all infrastructure in the Middle East if its own facilities were attacked.

Mohammad Akraminia, a spokesperson for the Iranian military, stated in a statement on July 16 (local time) that "the only way to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is for the United States to comply with the 14-point memorandum of understanding (MOU) on ending the war and to implement Iran's regulations regarding vessel passage in the strait."

He further warned, "If U.S. President Donald Trump carries out his threat to attack Iran's infrastructure, the Iranian military will strike all remaining infrastructure in the region," adding that "a much harsher, more extensive, and more destructive response than previous attacks will follow."

Spokesperson Akraminia also added, "The Iranian military has targeted U.S. bases in Kuwait and Jordan," and cautioned that "neighboring countries must keep in mind that providing bases to the U.S. and allowing attacks against Iranian territory is unacceptable and will certainly come at a price."

In an interview with Fox News on July 14, President Trump threatened that if a peace agreement with Iran is not reached by next week, he would attack civilian infrastructure, including power plants and bridges in Iran.
