The U.S. has expressed fears over Iran’s involvement in the ongoing Ukraine war

The U.S. Pentagon has expressed concerns about Russia receiving advanced weapons from Iran, in the ongoing conflict.

They say “Russia may seek to acquire additional advanced munition capabilities from Iran, for example, surface-to-surface missiles.”

“We are concerned that Russia may also seek to acquire advanced conventional weapons from Iran, such as surface to surface missiles that will almost certainly be used to support Russia’s war against Ukraine.”
NEd Price . u.s. state department spokesperson

Iran’s involvement in the conflict has come under the microscope recently, following suspicion it supplied Russia with Kamikaze drones.

“Anyone doing business with Iran that could have any links to its UAV or ballistic missiles development… we will not hesitate to use sanctions…”
NEd Price . u.s. state department spokesperson

America says it will use “every tool in its power to confront and counter” Iran’s involvement with Russia.

“We are always looking at targets that may be appropriate for this sort of response, sanctions, other, other financial measures.”
NEd Price . u.s. state department spokesperson

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
