"Iran Warns of Suspected Spy Ships as US Strikes Iran-Backed Targets in Mideast"

Iran issues a warning to the U.S. over potential targeting of two cargo ships in the Mideast, suspected of serving as bases for Iranian commandos, following U.S. and UK airstrikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels. The U.S. strikes targeted Houthi-held areas in Yemen, prompting warnings from U.S. and UK officials, with the U.S. Defense Secretary and Biden's national security adviser indicating preparedness for further action. The ships, Behshad and Saviz, are suspected of being used by Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, with the U.S. Treasury having sanctioned the company that owns them. The statement from Iran warns of potential consequences for those engaging in terrorist activities against the ships, amid heightened tensions in the region.
