Iran Warns Countries Supporting US Military Actions of Consequences

Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei warned that countries allowing the United States or Israel to use their military infrastructure for operations against Iran could face consequences. The warning came as tensions escalated in the region, with Iran rejecting any attempt to end the conflict on terms dictated by its adversaries. The statement was issued in Tehran on August 24, 2026.

Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei stated that countries providing infrastructure to US troops are urged to take 'necessary measures.' The warning was issued in Tehran, where Iran has been increasingly vocal about its opposition to US and Israeli military actions in the region. The statement was reported by Tass, which cited the Foreign Ministry's position on the legitimacy of targeting US military infrastructure in third countries. Tehran Times reported that Iran warned countries allowing the United States or Israel to use their military bases, facilities, or equipment for operations against Iran could face consequences. The article emphasized Iran's hardening stance on the regional crisis and its rejection of any terms imposed by adversaries. The two sources diverge slightly in phrasing, with Tass focusing on the 'necessary measures' and Tehran Times emphasizing the potential consequences for supporting US or Israeli military actions.
