Iran will treat all of Elon Musk’s companies in the Middle East as military targets as it retaliates against the United States, Iranian state media Fars reported on Thursday.
According to a translated post on Fars’ Telegram page, Iran is targeting “all interests related to economic conglomerates in West Asia run by Elon Musk,” including a regional Starlink ground station.
The report came as President Donald Trump warned on his social media account that the United States would attack Iran “VERY HARD TONIGHT.”
