Good morning Middle East Eye readers, here are the latest developments. An Iranian military spokesperson has threatened a more intense and widespread response to any future US attacks, suggesting the conflict could extend beyond West Asia if necessary. Iran's parliament speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, stated that the decision to avoid war lies with Washington.
He urged the region's nations to be aware that Iran is prepared for battle and has offered a firm and reasonable response to the US. Multiple explosions were reported in southern Iran's Qesh Island and Bandar Lengeh, which were later attributed to US military strikes. Despite President Donald Trump's earlier promise not to launch attacks after the midterms, he suggested a possible operation against an underground nuclear complex in Iran, known as Pickaxe Mountain, if a deal is not reached.
The United States has not ruled out the possibility of resuming hostilities with Iran. Additionally, Yemen's army reported conducting 951 operations against Houthi positions in the past day, neutralizing around 332 commanders and fighters. An Indian national was killed when an attack targeted a commercial vessel near Limah in Oman, but 13 other Indian citizens were rescued from the MSV AL JUSUFI.
