Iran military vows to cut US, allied access to regional oil and gas, force American retreat

Iran's highest operational command unit has issued the United States, the Israeli regime, and their allies a stern warning against further transgression against the country's infrastructure.

The comments were issued on Tuesday on the part of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters that coordinates operations between the Army and the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).

"We will target the infrastructure of the US and its allies in a way that will deprive them of the region’s oil and gas for years and force them to withdraw from the region," spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaqari said in a statement.

The comments came following repeated attacks by the United States and the Israeli regime against various Iranian infrastructural sites, including petrochemical facilities, railways, and bridges, as part of their February 28-present unprovoked aggression targeting the Islamic Republic.

They also followed a so-called tight deadline issued by US President Donald Trump for the Islamic Republic to reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz that it has shut down to the adversaries and those abetting their atrocities.

The Islamic Republic has categorically rejected any form of submission, asserting it would only settle for a conclusive end to whatever instance of aggression against the nation.

Most recently, Iran's Armed Forces responded with a 99th wave of retaliatory strikes against sensitive and strategic American and Israeli targets across the region.

The latest phase featured the IRGC's firing missiles from twin launch systems for the first time during the reprisal.

The spokesman asserted, "The wave of effective and crushing operations by Iran’s Armed Forces against the military, security, and economic infrastructure of the Zionist regime in the occupied territories, as well as against centers associated with the criminal United States in the region, will continue with even greater intensity and volume."
