Iran condemns US attack on Iranian desalination plant, issues a veiled threat - Türkiye Today

Iran strikes US naval base in Bahrain's Jufair in retaliation for US attack on a desalination plant on Iran, as Tehran warns US set a precedent

Does the US really want to play this game? 90% of Israel’s water comes from desalination plants, and now we’ve given Iran the justification to strike back in a similar manner.

    Lots of the collateral damage affected plenty of civilians then. I must admit I’ve saw so much about that aspect that I assumed it was intended.

      IDK about civilians.
      I do know Iran doesn’t target civilians.
      But also that the US military nearly completely abandoned their bases in those countries.
      They got housed in ‘civilian’ hotels, appartements, etc in those countries.
      If you’ve seen so many videos you surely saw the american filming from a flat right? Same happens in ukraine where the news was complaining evil Russia hit a civilian hotel and so many innocent civilians.
      While the videos show victims carried away in uniform and 2 days later the ukro army fires the guy responsible for holding a military meeting so close to the frontline. Military using civilian infrastructure makes them a legitimate target.
      Iran has very good intel on where they are since the population doesn’t see them as enemies unlike their sell-out governments.
      If anything, it’s another warcrime by the US since they shouldn’t put military targets among civilians.
