"Following previous warnings, if Iran's fuel and energy infrastructure is attacked by the enemy, all infrastructure of energy, information technology, and desalination facilities belonging to the US and the (Zionist) regime in the region will be targeted," Ebrahim Zolfaqari warned.

US President Donald Trump has once again threatened Iran with attacks on its infrastructure as a means to escape the predicament he finds himself in.

“If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday.

Late Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani had warned before his martyrdom that if anything happens to Iran's electricity, the entire region will experience a blackout within half an hour.
