Iran sends American spring breakers into spiral with chilling warning about luxury resorts not being ‘safe’
As millions of Americans go on spring break, Iran has issued a chilling warning that it will attack civilian targets around the world, including luxury resorts.
General Abolfazl Shekarchi warned that Israeli and US officials would not be safe after attacks eliminated Iran’s leadership, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“From now on, based on the information we have about you, even parks, recreation areas and tourist attractions anywhere in the world will no longer be safe for you,” Shekarchi told Iranian state television.
The warning comes at the height of spring break, when millions of U.S. students head to tourist spots at home and abroad.
