Iran threatens to turn US-linked oil infrastructure into 'Mountains of Ash'

Tehran, Mar 14 (UNI) Tehran on Saturday threatened to retaliate against attacks on Kharg, by turning US-linked oil infrastructure into "Mountains of Ash".
Shortly after the United States carried out heavy bombing raids on Iran's strategic Kharg Island late Friday, and following Trump's warning that US forces could target Iranian oil facilities if Teheran continues to block the Strait of Hormuz, Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, declared that all oil, economic, and energy infrastructure linked to US companies would be "reduced to mountains of ash" if corresponding Iranian assets are attacked.
"In response to the statement of the ...US president, we declare that if there is an attack on the oil, economic, and energy infrastructure of the Islamic Republic of Iran, as we have previously warned, immediately all oil, economic, and energy infrastructure belonging to companies across the region with US stakes, or cooperating with the US, will be destroyed and turned into mountains of ash," Iranian state media quoted Zolfaghari as saying.
