Iran warns US intervention in Israel conflict could trigger all-out war

A spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry issued a warning Wednesday that an American intervention in the ongoing Israeli strikes targeting his country would spark an all-out war. Esmail Baghaei made the comments in an interview live on Al Jazeera English. It was his first in the ongoing conflict. Baghaei said: Any American intervention would be a recipe for an all-out war in the region. President Donald Trump initially distanced himself from Israel's attacks on Iran but has hinted at greater US involvement, saying he wants something much bigger than a ceasefire. The US has also sent more warplanes to the region. Thousands of Israelis stranded abroad. The conflict has disrupted flight patterns across the region.
