Iran has warned that it may expand the Middle East conflict into the Indian Ocean if the United States launches another attack, according to an adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader. The warning comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the US, with diplomatic talks showing little progress. The adviser, Mojtaba Khamenei, made the statement in a video released by Iran’s Fars news agency.
The threat follows recent US sanctions on Iranian airlines and the suspension of flights between Iran and countries like Georgia and Azerbaijan. These actions have heightened tensions, with Iran hinting at potential retaliation. Meanwhile, oil prices have risen due to uncertainty over a possible US ban on diesel exports, further complicating the geopolitical situation.
The potential expansion of the conflict into the Indian Ocean raises concerns about regional stability and international trade routes. Analysts suggest that such a move could have significant economic and strategic implications for countries in the region. As negotiations continue, the risk of escalation remains a key concern for global powers.
