The secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council said Iran is fully prepared and that, should war resume, it will demonstrate new capabilities. He said US assets in the UAE and around the Strait of Hormuz are highly valuable but have not been placed on Iran's target list to date. He warned that renewed conflict would see many regional undersea cables, data centres, AI facilities and other sites destroyed, assets he valued at more than $2 trillion.
