A new stage of the regional conflict began with the attack on Iran’s gas infrastructure, said Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Speaker of the Iranian Majlis (parliament).

“The enemy is enraged,” he wrote on X, “and wants to cover up its failures on the battlefield by attacking infrastructure.” “For them, this is suicide,” Ghalibaf believes. According to the speaker of parliament, the principle of “an eye for an eye” has now come into effect, and a new level of conflict has begun.

On Wednesday, the head of the administration of the Asaluyeh district in Iran’s Bushehr province reported that a fire had broken out at several facilities of the South Pars gas field as a result of a strike by Israel and the United States.
