Global Threats: Iran's Warning, Climate Peril, Rights at Risk

Iran's Supreme Leader Warns of Regional War if U.S. Attacks

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned on Sunday that any attack by the United States would ignite a "regional war" in the Middle East. The statement, reported by the Associated Press and published by NPR on February 1, 2026, further escalated tensions amid President Donald Trump's threats of military action against the Islamic Republic.

Khamenei's comments, directed at the U.S., were described as the most direct threat he has made to date. The warning came as the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier was operating in the Indian Ocean on January 23, 2026, according to a U.S. Navy handout image also published by NPR.

The heightened tensions followed President Trump's increased rhetoric regarding Iran's nuclear program and its alleged support for militant groups in the region. The specific nature of a potential U.S. attack that would trigger Khamenei's threatened "regional war" was not detailed.
