US-Israel-Iran War Live News: Iran Warns US Against Ground Invasion
Iran has warned the United States against launching any ground invasion, saying American troops would face severe resistance if they attempted to enter Iranian territory.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said Tehran was fully prepared to respond to any military escalation and warned that any attempt to seize Iranian territory would carry significant consequences.
The latest warning follows continued US military strikes on Iranian targets and reports suggesting Washington is considering broader military options if the conflict continues to escalate.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: ‘Waiting For Their Arrival,’ Says Tehran
Iran delivered a direct message to Washington through Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei, who said, “They will face the repercussions. Numerous people in those very regions are eagerly awaiting their arrival.”
The remarks appeared to suggest that Iran believes both its military forces and local supporters are prepared to confront any US ground operation.
Baghaei’s comments came as speculation grows over possible American plans targeting strategic Iranian assets following several days of escalating military exchanges across the Gulf region.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: Iran Issues Stark Warning Over Kharg Island
Iran also warned against any attempt to capture Kharg Island, describing it as a vital national asset.
The island remains the country’s largest oil export terminal and plays a central role in Iran’s energy sector. Any attack or occupation could severely disrupt Iran’s crude exports and further intensify the conflict.
Tehran has maintained that any military operation targeting the island would be viewed as a major escalation and would trigger a strong response. The warning comes after reports indicated that Kharg Island could be among the strategic options under consideration by US military planners.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: Why Kharg Island Is In Focus?
Kharg Island is one of the most strategically important locations in Iran. Located about 55 kilometres off Iran’s Bushehr coast in the Persian Gulf, the island reportedly handles nearly 90% of Iran’s crude oil exports.
Its deep-water terminals allow some of the world’s largest oil tankers to load crude, making the island essential to Iran’s economy and global energy markets.
Because of its importance, any disruption to operations at Kharg could reduce Iranian oil exports, affect global crude supplies and increase international energy prices.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: Trump to Expand Military Operations?
Reports suggest the Trump administration is evaluating additional military options as the conflict continues.
According to recent media reports, officials have discussed expanding operations beyond airstrikes, including possible attacks on heavily fortified Iranian military and nuclear-related sites.
Among the reported options is a potential operation involving Kharg Island, although the White House has not officially confirmed any decision. US officials continue to maintain that all military options remain available while also leaving the door open for diplomacy if circumstances change.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: Can the US Seize Kharg Island?
Military analysts say the United States possesses the capability to capture a strategically located island like Kharg, but holding it would be considerably more difficult.
Security experts note that while the US military has extensive naval, air and amphibious capabilities in the region, occupying the island would expose American forces to sustained missile and drone attacks from Iran.
The United States is estimated to have around 50,000 military personnel stationed across the Middle East, providing significant operational reach. However, analysts caution that any attempt to seize Kharg Island would likely trigger a prolonged confrontation rather than deliver a quick strategic victory.
Many experts believe that even if the island were captured temporarily, maintaining control would involve major logistical, military and political challenges.
US-Israel-Iran War Live News: What’s Next?
The latest exchange of warnings highlights the growing risk that the conflict could move beyond air and missile strikes into a broader regional confrontation. Iran has made clear that it views any attempt to seize Kharg Island or launch a ground invasion as a major escalation, while reports suggest Washington continues to examine additional military options.
At the same time, both sides have continued to leave open the possibility of negotiations, although ongoing military operations make an immediate diplomatic breakthrough increasingly difficult. The coming days will be closely watched as developments around Kharg Island, the Strait of Hormuz and US military deployments
