An Iranian lawmaker has issued a stark warning that the United States could launch a more severe military attack on Iran after the 2026 World Cup, raising fears of a wider regional conflict.
According to Iran International, the parliament member said any future escalation could leave Iran looking like “a second Gaza,” reflecting growing concerns over security and geopolitical tensions in the region.
The warning comes amid heightened uncertainty surrounding Iran’s relations with Washington and ongoing instability across the Middle East. While details of the lawmaker’s remarks were limited, the comments underscore fears within parts of Iran’s political establishment that the current situation could deteriorate further after the global football tournament.
