Iran's Revolutionary Guard said employees of regional industrial companies with U.S. shareholders or ties to Israel should leave their workplaces immediately, citing retaliatory operations. Aerospace Force commander Majid Moosavi said that after the strikes on Iranian infrastructure 'the equation will no longer be an eye for an eye'.
Why it matters
The warning pointed Iran's retaliation at Gulf industry rather than only military bases, and the Guard claimed attacks on aluminium plants in the UAE and Bahrain the next day.
