Military tensions between Iran and the United States have reached a dangerous turning point. In just eight days—from May 25 to June 1—both countries have engaged in five military confrontations, prompting experts to describe it as the beginning of a "mini-war." During this period, both sides have launched missile and drone strikes on each other’s installations. The situation has escalated to the point where it could spiral into a full-blown war at any moment, especially if Israel becomes involved in the conflict.

In response, the IRGC issued a stern warning to the US, urging it to halt its actions or risk the conflict escalating into a broader war.
