Iran has issued a direct threat to Germany, warning that if Berlin openly joins any military action against Tehran, all German military bases and facilities in the region will be considered legitimate targets for attack. This conditional warning comes amid concerns of renewed conflict between Iran, the United States, and Israel.
The threat follows a Reuters report from earlier this month, citing Iranian intelligence services possibly targeting U.S. bases in Germany, specifically Ramstein and Spangdahlem Air Bases. According to Western intelligence sources, Israel had previously alerted the U.S. and Germany to the potential danger to facilities used for American operations in the conflict with Iran.
Germany maintains a military presence in the Middle East, including at the Al-Azraq base in Jordan and Al-Udeid base in Qatar, as well as operations in Baghdad. In early October, Germany completed the withdrawal of its forces from Erbil, Iraq.
