Iran pledges to target US ships in Indian Ocean
Iran has raised the level of its threats against the United States, announcing that American ships and destroyers will be considered targets by Iranian forces in the event of a new military confrontation. Iran also warned that if war breaks out, its naval forces will target American vessels even in the Indian Ocean. These statements come amid escalating tensions over maritime security in the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran reaffirming its control over the strait and warning against any American interference, stating that ships attempting to pass outside Tehran’s designated route "will not be safe." Iranian officials have also called on the United States to withdraw its forces from the region, facing American and Israeli comments with threats and warnings from Iran. In response, Saudi Arabia and Oman have called for ensuring freedom of navigation and de-escalation, emphasizing the importance of regional stability and political cooperation to protect the security of vital sea routes.
