An unnamed informed source has warned that recent threats by U.S. President Donald Trump against Iranian infrastructure could lead to broader and potentially unpredictable consequences, including impacts felt within the United States.

Speaking to Tasnim News Agency, the source described the situation as highly volatile, suggesting that further escalation could intensify tensions beyond the immediate conflict zone. The comments follow reports of alleged U.S. threats targeting Iranian power plants and bridges.

The source also referenced recent developments in central Iran, claiming that Iranian forces had repelled a U.S. operation near Isfahan. According to statements attributed to the spokesperson of Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters, several U.S. aircraft were reportedly destroyed during an attempted mission to rescue a downed pilot. These claims have not been independently verified.

Addressing the potential consequences of further escalation, the source warned that any direct action against Iranian infrastructure could trigger wider regional instability and indirect repercussions within U.S. territory. However, the source clarified that this does not refer to direct missile strikes, but rather to broader internal or systemic impacts.

The remarks also accused President Trump of miscalculating both the initiation and potential escalation of the conflict, suggesting that additional actions could deepen existing tensions.

No official response from U.S. authorities has been reported regarding these claims.
