If the US enters the war, Iran may strike military bases

The situation in the Middle East is becoming more tense every day. The New York Times (NYT), based on confidential information from its high-level sources, has reported alarming news about Iran’s preparations for war. According to the report, if the US joins the war to support Israel, Iran has already positioned missiles to strike American military bases.

It may start from Iraq and cover the entire Middle East

As Iranian officials have admitted, potential strikes may begin with US military bases in Iraq and could reach all military installations in the Middle East. American officials are seriously concerned about the possible expansion of the war. If the conflict front widens, all regional forces are expected to get involved.

Houthis and danger in the Red Sea

According to NYT sources, if the war starts and the US strikes Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility, the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen will also be activated. They may resume attacks on international cargo ships through the Red Sea. This would pose a serious threat to the world economy and the logistics system.

Strait of Hormuz — a strategic point

Sources also note that, during a potential war, Iran may mine the Strait of Hormuz to restrict the movement of US ships in the Persian Gulf. This move could have serious consequences not only militarily but also for global oil supplies.

No time needed to strike

NYT notes that, according to US intelligence, Iran does not need long preparations to attack American bases. They have already deployed the necessary weapons and infrastructure. Only a political decision is required to launch an attack.

Conclusion: The conflict between Iran and the US is on the verge of a new escalation. If a large-scale war starts, not only the Middle East, but the entire world economy and security system could face a serious test. In such a situation, every diplomatic step, every statement, and every military action can have a decisive impact on world history.
