An informed Iranian military source stated that regional oil facilities are not targets for Iranian attacks, but warned that all US and Israeli interests in the region are legitimate targets and will be under strike.
According to a statement widely circulated across Iranian media on March 2, 2026, Iran has explicitly denied targeting the oil infrastructure of neighboring countries, while simultaneously threatening American and Israeli assets.
The prominent Iranian news aggregator آخرین خبر reported comments from an informed military source who originally spoke to Tasnim News Agency, a semi-official outlet closely affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The source stated that oil facilities of regional countries have not been and are not among the targets of Iran's attacks. However, the military official issued a stark threat, declaring that all the interests of America and Israel anywhere in the region are among Iran's legitimate targets and will all be under strike.
This exact narrative was echoed across multiple channels with varying editorial focuses, suggesting a unified messaging strategy to reassure regional neighbors while projecting strength against Western and Israeli adversaries. The breaking news and war-alert channel خبرفوری جنگ🚨اخبارفوری امریکا فوری highlighted the core denial regarding regional oil targets.
Similarly, another alert-focused aggregator, اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری, shared an identical brief update. The message also crossed over into domestic political channels; حامیان پزشکیان, a channel aligned with supporters of the Iranian president, broadcast the exact same Tasnim quote to its readership.
All channels are citing a single original report from Tasnim News Agency. The source channels represent a mix of breaking war news aggregators and pro-government political supporter networks (Pezeshkian supporters). The messaging appears highly unified across the Iranian Telegram ecosystem, focusing heavily on deterring fears of attacks on regional infrastructure while maintaining an aggressive, unfiltered posture toward the US and Israel.
