Tehran will attack the airports of neighboring countries that cooperate with US sanctions against Iranian airlines, Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, said in an interview with state television on Wednesday.

The threat came after US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced on Monday that all Iranian airlines would be forced to stop operating by Wednesday, while countries allowing air services that enable the continued flights would face secondary sanctions.

“If a country cooperates with or embarks on adventures with the United States, its airports will no longer be able to operate flights,” Rezaei threatened.
