Iran warns against ‘instability’ after U.S. strike group arrives

Iran’s president on Tuesday warned U.S. “threats” against the Islamic republic would only cause instability, as a U.S. naval strike group led by an aircraft carrier took up position in Middle Eastern waters.

Washington has not ruled out military intervention against Tehran over its crackdown on protests — which rights groups say left thousands of people dead — and President Donald Trump has dispatched the USS Abraham Lincoln to the area “just in case”.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian hit out at U.S. “threats” in a call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, saying they were “aimed at disrupting the security of the region and will achieve nothing other than instability.”
