Iran threatens to expand the regional war if the US and Israel launch a new joint aggression Senior Iranian military spokesman, Lt. Gen. Mohammad Akarmini, issued a stern warning to US President Donald Trump, declaring that Iran's armed forces are closely monitoring all US military maneuvers throughout the region. In an article in a public statement on social media, Akramini warned that any attempt by the White House to launch another joint military operation alongside Israel would result in an immediate and unprecedented armed response from Tehran. "There is no doubt that the flames of the war will engulf a much wider area, and the end of the conflict will not be in his hands," Akramina stated, warning that Washington would not be able to control or limit the scope of the regional escalation after the resumption of fighting. Based on Trump's "distrustful" nature and long record of reneging on diplomatic commitments, Iran's military leadership has confirmed that defense units are relentlessly expanding operational readiness, upgrading offensive missile capabilities and strengthening strategic naval positions to repel possible aggressive actions. "Given US presidents' dark record of diplomatic betrayal, the army of the Islamic Republic of Iran, distrustful and indifferent to Israel's actions, is constantly upgrading its combat readiness. We are closely monitoring US movements in the region," he wrote. The heightened warnings from Tehran follow increased military deployments by the US Central Command in regional waters, as Washington moves additional naval assets to support the Israeli military position. Iranian defense officials have reiterated that while Tehran is not seeking outright de-escalation, any violation of Iranian sovereignty, military assets or strategic maritime corridors will result in retaliatory actions that hit US bases and allied targets across the region.
