Iran Warns War Could Expand to Indian Ocean if US or Israel Attacks Again

Iran Warns War Could Expand to Indian Ocean if US or Israel Attacks AgainPreviousNext

Iran has warned that its ongoing conflict with the United States could expand into the Indian Ocean if the US or Israel launches another attack. Yahya Rahim Safavi, adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader, stated the war front has already spread from the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz to the Red Sea and may extend further. This escalation raises concerns over key maritime routes, including the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and the Strait of Hormuz, vital for global energy and trade, especially impacting countries like India. Both sides continue diplomatic talks amid ongoing tensions.
