Iran Guards Threaten US Universities in Middle East Amid Retaliation Fears
Following US-Israeli strikes that reportedly destroyed two Iranian universities, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard issued a threat on March 29 to target US universities in the Middle East. The Guard demanded an official condemnation of the university bombings from the US government by noon on March 30, Tehran time, warning that American campuses in the region and their surroundings would face retaliation if this demand was not met. This warning urged employees, professors, students, and residents near American universities in the Gulf to stay at least a kilometer away from campuses.
