According to Iranian state media, the warning was issued by the commander of the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
If enemies use their land or facilities to attack Iran, they should say goodbye to oil production in the Middle East region.
The report notes that Iran has expanded the list of potential targets beyond military facilities. It now includes large oil fields and refineries in the region.
Among the countries whose facilities may be at risk are the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain.
Tehran states that some Persian Gulf countries have previously allowed their territory to be used for actions against Iran. At the same time, some of them are allies of the United States and host American military bases.
Iran warns that if such practices continue, the "economic life" of these states will be at risk.
