Gen. Pat Ryder said during a press conference on Tuesday that the U.S. was \u201cconcerned\u201d about \u201cthe threat situation\u201d and that the U.S. was in close contact with Saudi Arabia over the matter. \u201cWe will reserve the right to protect and defend ourselves no matter where our forces are serving, whether in Iraq or elsewhere,\u201d Ryder <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/us-saudi-arabia-high-alert-intel-impending-iranian-attack-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The threats from Iran come as the country has shipped drones for Russian forces to use in their war against Ukraine. Iran has a history of using drones to launch terrorist attacks against countries in the Middle East, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/attack-refinery-riyadh-did-not-affect-petroleum-supplies-spa-2022-03-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">providing<\/a> their proxies with drones that are then used to carry out the attacks.<\/p>\n<p>The report said that Iran has sought to cast blame on Saudi Arabia for the protests it faces because of the Farsi-speaking news coverage Saudi Arabia controls, which Iranians watch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is our last warning, because you are interfering in our internal affairs through these media,\u201d Maj. Gen. Hossein Salami. \u201cYou are involved in this matter and know that you are vulnerable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The riots in Iran were sparked in the middle of September over the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who was arrested for violating the country\u2019s laws that require women to wear a hijab.
