Iran issues warning to U.S troops
The Trump administration has already deployed U.S. Marines to the Middle East. Moreover, plans are to send thousands of soldiers from the U.S Army’s 82nd Airborne to the region as well.
Per Al Jazeera, on Saturday, the US Central Command said about 3,500 additional soldiers arrived in the Middle East on board the USS Tripoli. While the U.S. is planning to possibly deploy troops, Iran has now issued a chilling warning if that becomes reality.
On Sunday, Iran’s parliament speaker, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, stated that Iran is ready to face U.S troops on the ground and that they will rain fire upon them. Moreover, he accused the Trump administration of secretly planning the attack while still seeking to negotiate to end the conflict.
“The enemy, openly, sends messages of negotiation and dialogue, but secretly is planning a ground attack,” Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf said.
He continued, stating that the U.S is “unaware that our men are waiting for American soldiers to enter on the ground so they can set them ablaze and punish their regional partners forever.”
