'Bid farewell to oil production': Iran cautions Gulf states against aiding attacks Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned Gulf countries that oil production across the Middle East could be disrupted if their territory is used to launch attacks against Iran. "The southern neighbours should know that if their geography and facilities are used in the service of the enemies to attack the Iranian nation, they should bid farewell to oil production in the Middle East," IRGC aerospace commander Majid Mousavi was quoted as saying by Fars News Agency.
