  • •Iran threatens missile strikes on Europe if US bases are used against it.
  • •Potential targets include military bases in Italy and Germany.
  • •Iran's missile capabilities could reach parts of southeastern Europe.

Iranian officials have declared that the country will target European military bases if the US uses them for attacks against Iran. Ahmad Bakhshayesh Ardestani, a member of Iran's parliament security committee, stated that missile strikes would be directed at bases in Italy and Germany. This warning follows a publication by Iranian media showing a map of Europe with potential targets marked. The Iranian regime has indicated that this response is a shift from previous conflicts where they refrained from attacking European targets. While Iran lacks intercontinental ballistic missiles, it possesses theater ballistic missiles capable of reaching parts of southeastern Europe. The situation escalates as Iranian lawmakers assert that any support for US military actions will have consequences. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has also pledged a response to perceived threats, emphasizing a broader range of targets beyond the Middle East.
