According to Jin10, Fada-Hossein Maleki, a member of Iran’s Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said Iran had issued an ultimatum to Middle Eastern countries, requiring them to stop all support for the United States if hostilities between Iran and the U.S. resume. In an interview with RIA Novosti, Maleki said Iran had previously struck all military bases in regional countries that the U.S. military used to attack Iran. If conflict breaks out again, he said, Iran would identify the Middle Eastern countries that support the U.S. military, and its response would go beyond strikes on their military bases; Iran would classify the countries themselves as hostile. Maleki said Iran had conveyed its position to the relevant countries and was on high alert, closely monitoring developments.
