Iran warned regional countries of strikes on US bases if attacked, official says

Iran warned regional countries it will strike US military bases in those countries in case of a US attack, a senior Iranian official tells Reuters, following President Donald Trump’s threats to intervene amid nationwide anti-government protests.

“Tehran has told regional countries, from Saudi Arabia and UAE to Turkey, that US bases in those countries will be attacked if the US targets Iran… asking these countries to prevent Washington from attacking Iran,” the official says.
