Battle for Bengal: Mamata or Modi, who has the edge? Experts weigh in

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps has issued a statement threatening to target US business interests and companies across Gulf Cooperation Council countries starting April 1. This comes as retaliation for attacks on Isfahan. The IRGC's threat marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. Iran has specifically demonstrated precision strikes, including damage to a US Sentry AWACS aircraft at Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Iran has previously warned that American bases, hotels hosting US soldiers, and companies affiliated with the US would be considered targets. Despite over a month of sustained bombing by US and Israeli air forces targeting thousands of sites, Iran's command and control capabilities remain intact. The conflict has seen Iran deploy Shahid drones for precision strikes, while the US has used conventional military assets including fighter jets, bombers, aircraft carriers and bunker-buster weapons like the GBU-57 massive ordnance penetrator.
