Iran has warned that it will target economic and banking interests linked to the United States and Israel across the Middle East, according to reports from Iranian state media.
The warning comes amid escalating tensions between Iran and both the United States and Israel following recent military confrontations and growing regional instability.
Iranian officials said potential targets could include financial institutions, commercial infrastructure, and other economic assets connected to U.S. and Israeli interests in the region. The statement suggested that Tehran could respond through a range of measures aimed at disrupting economic activity and financial networks associated with the two countries.
State media reported that the move would be part of Iran’s broader response to what it described as hostile actions by the United States and Israel. Iranian authorities did not provide specific details about when or how such actions might take place.
Security analysts say threats against economic and financial assets could include cyber operations, attacks on commercial infrastructure, or actions carried out through regional allies and proxy groups.
The warning underscores rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, where clashes between Israel and Iran aligned groups, as well as U.S. military involvement in the region, have heightened fears of a broader conflict.
Regional governments and financial institutions are closely monitoring the situation, as any disruption to banking systems or economic infrastructure could have wider implications for trade, energy markets, and financial stability across the Middle East.
