Iran Leader Warns US Against 'Regional War'

Iran warns that a U.S. attack would escalate into regional conflict, with Iran capable of striking U.S. and allied forces, amid ongoing diplomatic efforts and military buildup.

  • Iran's supreme leader in Tehran warned that another U.S. attack would trigger regional conflict, saying the Iranian nation will respond if attacked.
  • The U.S. moved the USS Abraham Lincoln, bombers, and fighters near Iran, while President Donald Trump said time is running out and hopes for talks in Turkey later this week.
  • Iranian officials threatened counterstrikes that could target Israel and U.S. troops and regional interests, highlighting Tehran's ongoing strike capabilities.
  • The UAE and Saudi Arabia have said U.S. forces wouldn't use their territory or airspace, and a diplomatic off-ramp exists if the U.S. administration steps back from nuclear, missile, and proxy demands.
  • Iran's regime is unusually vulnerable after protests and a 12-day war with Israel that weakened key air defenses, yet it refuses to discuss limits on its ballistic missile program.
