Mohammad-Reza Naghdi, the deputy coordinator of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has issued a stark warning about the ongoing regional tensions. He stated that 'it is possible that if the war continues, it will become a world war.' This comes amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, with a two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran set to end on April 22, 2026. Naghdi's comments reflect growing concerns that the conflict could expand beyond current regional boundaries.
