Iran says "we're watching your every move" to United States
Iranian officials have issued a stern warning to the United States, demanding an end to its regional presence amid rising tensions and threats from President Trump. Reports suggest potential renewed strikes on Iran if economic pressure strategies fail, while regional maritime security remains a point of contention.
Why it matters
Escalating rhetoric between the US and Iran poses significant risks to regional stability and global oil market prices.
Iranian Parliament's National Security Committee head Ebrahim Azizi warned the United States on Thursday that Tehran is "watching" Washington's "every move," as tensions rose again following US President Donald Trump's latest threats.
"Any further mistake or miscalculation will carry consequences far greater than before," Azizi wrote on X and demanded the US "end" its presence in the region "immediately before it is too late, and accept Iran’s new regional order."
Meanwhile, new reports emerged claiming Trump may order renewed strikes on Iran should his strategy of maximum economic pressure fail.
