Press TV – March 18, 2026
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says regional energy production facilities linked to the United States will be reduced to ashes as the elite force prepares to respond to attacks on Iran’s natural gas production sites.
Spokesman of the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters Lieutenant Colonel Ebrahim Zolfaqari said on Wednesday that Iran’s attacks will target countries whose territories were used to launch airstrikes on Iran’s gas facilities earlier in the day.
“Fuel, energy and natural gas infrastructure of the source of the invasion will be set ablaze and reduced to ashes at the earliest opportunity,” the spokesman said in a televised statement.
Earlier on Wednesday, the IRGC issued a warning note to people living near five major energy production facilities in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar, to immediately evacuate to protect their lives from Iran’s reprisal attacks.
The warning came right after Iran’s Oil Ministry said four refining facilities in Asaluyeh, a Persian Gulf coastal town home to Iran’s gas processing installations, had suffered damage as a result of US-Israeli airstrikes.
Meanwhile, commander of the IRGC Navy Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri said in a post on his X account that the force had updated its bank of targets to include “oil installations related to the US.”
Tangsiri said the IRGC will open fire on those installations forcefully and with full strength.
“We warn citizens and workers to keep away from these installations,” said his post.
Iran has been carrying out reprisal attacks against US military bases and other assets in regional countries since the start of the US-Israeli aggression on February 28.
However, oil and gas infrastructure was spared to prevent major disruption to regional and international energy supplies.
Iranian authorities had warned that those facilities would also come under attack if corresponding sites in Iran were hit.
The Wednesday attacks and Iran’s planned response are expected to cause a major surge in international energy prices, with analysts warning that they could well exceed $150 a barrel, up nearly three times compared to before the aggression on Iran.

US soldiers really are refusing orders to fight for israel in the war on iran
Its not just the UK, where service men have said they will go to prison rather than kill innocent families
More than two weeks after the US and Israel launched military strikes on Iran, a “peace rule ” has sprung up that American soldiers are refusing, en masse, to fight. There is some evidence for it. However, the number of conscientious objectors in the US military is on the rise, according to the Centre on Conscience and War NGO
News that once Israel has taken Iran and Turkey, the world will be next
people are remembering Netanyahus statement ” Palestine today tomorrow America ”
after the jewish attack on 9.11 and the London 7-7 bombings,. service man do not want to help israel in any way.
The UK is choc full of Middle east migrants, after W W 2 Churchill had 1000 bomber raids
on the ruins of Germany, as he said quote ” its better to bomb and burn them in their homes ”
rather than we take them in as refugees
Trump has written on Truth Social and said to Iran the US did not attack their South Pars gas field, Israel did, and appealed to the Iranians not to strike US and Qatari gas fields in response. What an idiot. This war is a joint venture and presumably, hopefully, both the US and Israel are going down.
