TEHRAN: Iran’s military has warned that countries allowing the United States to use their territory to launch attacks against Iran will have to pay a heavy price.

Iranian Armed Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Ali Abdollahi said countries permitting the U.S. to conduct attacks against Iran from their territory should know that “nothing remains hidden from Iran.”

He said providing any form of assistance or facilities to the U.S. military would be considered participation in the war against Iran.

Abdollahi warned that countries allowing their territory to be used for U.S. attacks against Iran would face serious consequences and “pay a heavy price.”
