[–>Iran reportedly threatens to target U.S., Israeli energy infrastructure if attacked

<!–>

Iran is threatening to retaliate against U.S. or Israeli strikes by targeting critical energy infrastructure, according to comments published Friday by Iran’s state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency.

]–><!–>

A senior security official told Tasnim that reports in U.S. media about possible American and Israeli attacks on Iranian infrastructure amounted to “a kind of madness,” warning Tehran has prepared “extensive response plans.”

According to Tasnim, the official said those plans include strikes targeting Israeli critical infrastructure and U.S. energy infrastructure across the region, adding Iran’s armed forces have both “the capability and the will” to carry them out.

The threat comes hours after the White House told Fox News Digital that President Donald Trump “is not going to stand by and allow this terrorist behavior to occur” and that “Iran will continue to pay until they come to the table in, what President Trump deems, a meaningful way.”

The White House statement came in response to reports of a possible expansion of U.S. military operations against Iran.

Rubio says Iran has ‘never faced a president like Trump’

<!–>

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Iran is confronting a different kind of U.S. president under President Donald Trump, arguing Tehran can no longer rely on negotiations without consequences.

]–><!–>

In an interview airing this weekend on “My View with Lara Trump,” Rubio said the Iranian regime has “never faced a president like President Trump.”

]–><!–>

“I don’t think the Iranian regime has ever faced a president like President Trump, which is someone that actually takes action,” Rubio said. “They got used to, for 20 or 30 years, not just the U.S., but the broader world, allowing them to get away with things like lying, breaking deals, tricking people into agreements.”

]–><!–>

The comments come as the White House says Iran “will continue to pay” until it returns to negotiations in what President Trump considers “a meaningful way,” following Tehran’s alleged attacks on commercial shipping and U.S. forces after signing a memorandum of understanding with the United States.

During Fox News’ “Special Report,” panelists said the administration appears increasingly skeptical that Iran will negotiate in good faith as the president weighs further military action.
