War would spread beyond West Asia, say Iran Guards
Iran has warned that any renewed military action by the U.S. and Israel could lead to a war that extends beyond West Asia. Despite a ceasefire in place, tensions remain high as both sides engage in diplomatic talks while exchanging threats. The situation is further complicated by rising energy costs and protests in countries reliant on Gulf oil imports.
