U.S. Central Command (Centcom) has issued a safety warning to Iranian civilians amid the U.S.\u2019s current conflict with Iran, stating that the country\u2019s government \u201cis using heavily populated civilian areas to conduct military operations.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cU.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) is issuing a safety warning to civilians in Iran, March 8, as Iran\u2019s terrorist regime blatantly disregards the safety of innocent people,\u201d Centcom said in a post on the social platform X on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Iranian regime is using heavily populated civilian areas to conduct military operations, including launching one-way attack drones and ballistic missiles. This dangerous decision risks the lives of all civilians in Iran since locations used for military purposes lose protected status and could become legitimate military targets under international law,\u201d the post continued.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran could possibly defend itself if a U.S. ground incursion happened.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor the time being we are capable enough. We have very brave soldiers, who are waiting for any enemy who enters into our soil to fight with them, and to kill them and destroy them,\u201d Araghchi said on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump administration officials, including President Trump himself, have not denied the possibility of sending ground troops into Iran.<\/p>\n
\u201cIranian forces are using crowded areas surrounded by civilians in cities such as Dezful, Esfahan and Shiraz to launch attack drones and ballistic missiles,\u201d Centcom said in its Sunday post.<\/p>\n
\u201cU.S. forces strongly urge civilians in Iran to stay at home. The Iranian regime is knowingly endangering innocent lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
The son of the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was chosen by Iranian clerics as the next leader of Iran, per Iranian state media. A body of 88 Iranian clerics elected Mojtaba Khamenei following the death of his father, whom the U.S. confirmed it killed in an airstrike.<\/p>\n
