Iran points at tit for tat retaliation if power plants targeted, statement - Reuters

Iran has issued a warning that it will retaliate in kind if its power plants are targeted, according to a statement reported by Reuters. The threat comes amid escalating tensions in the region and reflects Iran's concern about potential military strikes against its critical infrastructure. Such a tit-for-tat response would likely target Israeli or U.S. facilities, significantly raising the risk of direct military conflict. Iran has previously launched drone and missile attacks in response to perceived threats, and this statement signals readiness to do so again. The warning underscores how vulnerable energy infrastructure has become a focal point in the broader Middle East conflict.
