Once again, Iran's foreign minister warned new fronts would open against the US if it maintains unequivocal Israel support, escalating rhetoric amid fears the Israel-Hamas conflict could widen. He declined to detail consequences but denied instructing Syria/Iraq groups to recently target US forces, saying it was Washington fanning violence by totally siding with Israel. He said if the US continues, new fronts will open against it, warning the killing of Gazan women and children could make the situation uncontrollable. This follows US strikes in Syria on Iran-linked facilities used for regional attacks on troops. He maintained groups attacking US forces acted independently without Tehran's direction. The statements signal Iran's growing frustration with US support for Israel as casualties mount from Israeli retaliation against Hamas.
