Iran has promised to destroy the energy infrastructure of the Middle East and close the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait. According to President Masoud Pezeshkian, 14 million people are ready to join the Iranian army.

All this happened after today's US strikes on the Iranian island of Kharq and President Donald Trump's threats to destroy Iranian civilization.

"More than 14 million courageous Iranians have now declared their readiness to sacrifice their lives for the protection of Iran. I have also been, am and will be ready to give my life for Iran," Peseshkian wrote on the social network X.
"From this moment on, certain considerations regarding good neighborliness and restraint cease. We will act against the infrastructure of the United States and its partners in The Persian Gulf in such a way that they will be deprived of the region's oil and gas for years," the IRGC said.

Tehran also said that if the United States attacks Iran's power plants, "the entire region and Saudi Arabia will be plunged into complete darkness," and Bab-el-Mandeb, strategically important for the world economy, will be closed.
