Tensions spiked on two fronts on Wednesday as the US-Iran standoff hardened and Russia said it attacked a cargo ship in the Black Sea.
Iran's top security official said Tehran is developing nuclear-powered warships and submarines and needs access to enriched nuclear material. He warned that if the US attacks Iran, Tehran would strike American bases far beyond the region — including US bases in European countries if American jets fly from them.
Russia's president told the Iranian official he had stressed to Washington that Iran 'is not a country that can be overthrown', the official said.
The escalation adds to a string of incidents around energy shipping lanes, from the Black Sea to the Strait of Hormuz.
