New Delhi, Sept. 8 -- Iran threatened on Monday to retaliate against any new US attacks on its assets, warning that energy infrastructure across the Gulf, including US oil and gas interests, was vulnerable.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf warned the United States that any attack on Iran's oil and gas assets would draw retaliation against American energy interests across the region.

Qalibaf issued the stark warning in a post on X on Monday in response to recent threats by US War Secretary Pete Hegseth, who had claimed that Iran's oil tanker fleet is "defenseless" and that American planes, ships and submarines can strike them all.
