Current war could spiral into WWIII if it continues, IRGC adviser warns

Apr 18, 2026, 15:39 GMT+1

A senior adviser to the commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards warned that the ongoing conflict could escalate into a global war if it continues, while also signaling Iran’s readiness to deploy newly produced weapons in any renewed fighting.

Mohammad Reza Naqdi said Iran could launch missiles and drones manufactured as recently as April 2026 if hostilities resume, dismissing claims that its launch capabilities had been destroyed.

“They say they have destroyed our missile launchers. We can produce launchers in any metal workshop," he said.
