An Islamic Revolution's Guard Corps (IRGC) General issued on Saturday a formal warning to the US and its allies, that if they continue committing "crimes" in the Gaza Strip there could be a potential blockade of the Mediterranean Sea by "new resistance forces."

"If the crimes continue, the US and its allies have to wait for new resistance forces to arise and the remaining roads and paths to them to be closed. Yesterday, the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz became a nightmare for them, and today the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea have trapped them, and with the continuation of these crimes, they will soon have to wait for the closure of the Mediterranean Sea," IRGC commander Brig. Gen. Mohammad Reza Naqdi was quoted as saying by Iranian news agency Tasnim.

During a press conference on Friday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told reporters that the spillover effects of the war on Gaza are already happening.
