Iran names Gulf states: verbal commitments must align with actual actions

The Odaily Planet Daily reports, citing Iran's Tasnim News Agency, that the Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces stated: Although the countries on the southern shore of the Persian Gulf have indicated through various statements that they will not allow the United States to use their territory to confront Iran, they must be clear about one fact—nothing can escape our eyes. It seems unlikely that such a number of military aircraft, especially tanker aircraft, could appear at regional bases without the knowledge of the host countries. We issue another solemn warning: any act of providing assistance or convenience to the US aggressive forces will be regarded as coordinated participation with the US military. (Jin Shi)
