Qalibaf warns against targeting Iran's oil
According to Iranian sources, the Speaker of the Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, responded to threats from US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, affirming that oil and gas production in the region is visible and easily accessible, and that American oil companies operate openly in accessible areas. Ghalibaf warned that any attempt to strike Iran's oil assets would be met with military retaliation, pointing out that the American bases deemed unfit for operation are evidence of this. These statements come amidst rising tensions between Iran and the United States over oil activities and strategic waterways, with the US threatening to destroy Iranian oil tankers if Iran fires upon US ships. Iran, for its part, has maintained that it will respond if the US intensifies its naval blockade against it.
