Iran's National Security Council chief, Mohsen Rezaei, has issued a stark warning to regional nations, stating that underwater cables, data centers, and artificial intelligence facilities could be targeted if the United States resumes military action. Rezaei specifically mentioned valuable U.S. assets in the UAE and near the Strait of Hormuz as potential targets, though he indicated they have not yet been designated as such. He asserted that Iran is prepared for a renewed confrontation with a more comprehensive and detailed action plan.
Meanwhile, behind-the-scenes discussions continue in Washington and Jerusalem regarding a potential military operation against Iran and future strategies toward Tehran. Despite the U.S. easing one of its demands, Israeli leadership reportedly remains divided on security matters. Journalist assessments suggest that the Chief of General Staff of the IDF, Zamir, might find himself in the minority during closed-door deliberations.
Previous reports indicated that despite significant strikes by the U.S. and Israel, economic damage, and a maritime blockade, Iranian authorities are resolute in their resistance. Tehran believes that prolonging the conflict could lead to a strategic defeat for Washington. Analysts suggest that military campaigns have not weakened the Iranian leadership but have instead fueled nationalist sentiment and strengthened hardline factions within the regime.
