DUBAI, March 22 (Reuters) - Critical infrastructure and energy facilities in the Middle East could be "irreversibly destroyed" should Iranian power plants be targeted, Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said in comments posted on X on Sunday.
His comments come after U.S. President Donald Trump warned that Iranian power plants would be targeted if the Strait of Hormuz is not "fully open" within 48 hours.
Qalibaf said regional infrastructure would become "legitimate targets" should Iran's facilities be hit, and that its retaliation would increase the price of oil for a while.
