Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned Israel not to attack its energy infrastructure. Earlier, Israel attacked the South Pars gas field. In response, Iran also attacked the Ras Laffan industrial area in Qatar.
Araghchi warned that if its infrastructure is attacked again, it will reach a state of 'zero tolerance'. He also claimed that Iran has not used full force in the war so far.
The Red Crescent charity has reported that at least 204 children have died in Iran due to attacks by the US and Israel so far. The death toll has exceeded 1,444 as the war continues on the 21st day.
Similarly, more than 1,000 people have been killed in Israeli attacks in Lebanon. Of these, 118 are children, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
Iran is blocking the Strait of Hormuz. As a result, the world's energy crisis continues. Crude oil prices have been fluctuating.
After the attacks on South Pars and Ras Laffan, the price of Brent crude oil rose to a high of $111 per barrel on Wednesday. On Thursday, the price fell slightly to $122 per barrel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Iran will not attack its energy infrastructure at the request of the United States. Earlier, US President Donald Trump had said that he had no plans to attack Iran's energy infrastructure. But he had also warned that if Iran attacks Qatar again, he would completely destroy the South Pars gas field.
In protest against the Iranian attack on Ras Laffan in Qatar, Trump wrote on the social network Truth, 'If Iran continues to attack Qatar, we will completely destroy South Pars. I have taken a policy of not attacking this infrastructure because it is important for Iran's energy in the long term. But if Qatar is attacked, I will be forced to cause a big explosion.'
He claimed that Israel attacked South Pars alone without any coordination with the US. Shortly after that, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that his country carried out the attack alone. He said that he would not attack any more of Iran's energy infrastructure after Trump's request.
