US President Donald Trump on Thursday America had 'no idea' of Israel's attack on facilities linked to Iran's oil industry in South Pars and Asaluyeh, warning of severe military consequences if Tehran launches more attacks on Qatar's energy infrastructure, as tensions across the Gulf escalated following strikes on major liquefied natural gas facilities.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, “Israel, out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East, has violently lashed out at a major facility known as South Pars Gas Field in Iran. A relatively small section of the whole has been hit."
On Wednesday, facilities linked to Iran’s oil industry in South Pars and Asaluyeh came under attack, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency.
"The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form, involved with it, nor did it have any idea that it was going to happen," Trump said, adding that Israel will "NO MORE" target Iran’s South Pars gas field unless Tehran “unwisely decides to attack a very innocent, in this case, Qatar”.
In such a scenario, the United States, “with or without the help or consent of Israel, will massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field at an amount of strength and power that Iran has never seen or witnessed before”, Trump wrote on Truth Social.
