The United States continues to hold a significant military presence across the Middle East, with numerous bases stationed throughout the region — including near Iran’s borders, reports Rks News.
Amid growing tensions between Washington and Tehran, this strategic deployment has once again become a focal point of geopolitical attention.
Iran’s Supreme Leader has issued a stern warning, stating that any form of American military action would trigger grave consequences.
“Any form of U.S. military intervention will undoubtedly be met with irreversible damage,” he declared on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump avoided making a firm statement on whether a strike against Iran is on the table:
“I might do it, I might not,” Trump said briefly to reporters, leaving all options open.
The rising strain between the two nations underscores the risk of a wider regional conflict, with both sides signaling readiness — and red lines.
