Iran's top military command has warned it will hit U.S. bases and interests across the region if Washington resumes military action against Tehran. The warning follows reports that the U.S. was preparing new action against Iran, backed by some regional countries, during a meeting in Europe.
Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya joint military command warned on Sunday that U.S. bases and interests in the region would face sustained attacks if the United States resumes military action against Iran. The statement came after reports that Washington was preparing to act against Iran, with the backing of some regional countries, during a meeting in Europe.
The warning lands amid an Iran-U.S. conflict that has seen intermittent hostilities throughout 2026, including collapsed ceasefire agreements and renewed limited strikes between the two nations. Naming U.S. military infrastructure as a target formally indicates Iran's intention to strike back, marking a potential escalation.
Diplomacy is also feeling the strain. Market pricing tied to a potential U.S.-Iran deal in 2026 shows falling confidence that Iran reconstruction funding will be part of any agreement, with odds trending downward, and Iran's warning may negatively impact ongoing negotiations.
What happens next depends on how Washington and its allies respond, and on whether the European meeting on possible military action against Iran moves toward action or restraint. Mediators such as Qatar or Pakistan could still play a role in shaping U.S.-Iran relations.
