A spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry issued a warning Wednesday that an American intervention in the ongoing Israeli strikes targeting his country would spark "an all-out war."
Esmail Baghaei made the comments in an interview live on Al Jazeera English. It was his first in the ongoing conflict.
Baghaei said: "Any American intervention would be a recipe for an all-out war in the region."
President Donald Trump initially distanced himself from Israel's attacks on Iran but has hinted at greater US involvement, saying he wants something ¿much bigger¿ than a ceasefire. The US has also sent more warplanes to the region.
Thousands of Israelis stranded abroad. The conflict has disrupted flight patterns across the region.
