Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Amid discussions in the US and Israel about a potential strike on Iran following the upcoming US midterm elections, a senior Iranian official issued a stark warning. Professor Mohammad Marandi, a member of Iran's negotiation delegation, threatened that an American attack would lead to the downfall of regimes in the Persian Gulf. He stated that Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain should prepare for the swift collapse of their "family dictatorships."

Marandi asserted that if US President Trump were to carry out threats of "genocide" in Iran, these Gulf regimes would be immediately overthrown. He also predicted a rapid collapse of the global economy in such a scenario. The comments come as tensions remain high and speculation about potential military action against Iran continues.
