Strike on Iran would trigger World War III: IRGC general

TEHRAN,Sept.24(MNA) – The commander of the Aerospace Force of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps has said that an Israeli strike on Iran would trigger World War III. Should Israel and Iran engage militarily, “nothing is predictable… and it will turn into World War III,” Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh told Iran’s Arabic language news network Al-Alam on Sunday, the Economic Times reported. He added that Iran would deem any Israeli strike to be conducted with U.S. authorization, so “whether the Zionist regime attacks with or without U.S. knowledge, then we will definitely attack U.S. bases in Bahrain, Qatar, and Afghanistan.” Hajizadeh also warned that Israel “cannot imagine our response - and it will sustain heavy damage and that will be a prelude to its obliteration.”
