Iran's Ambassador to the UN says it is not acceptable that the land of neighbours is being used to facilitate aggression against Iran; if any base is used to attack and invade other countries, that would be a legitimate target

• Will continue defence until the point of aggression is stopped. 

This statement from Iran's Ambassador signals heightened geopolitical tensions, particularly with potential implications for regional stability in the Middle East. The assertion that foreign military bases may be considered legitimate targets could escalate conflicts, affecting markets like oil and gold, and prompting reactions in related currencies such as the USD, JPY, and EUR.
