The Kremlin has issued a stark warning against the possible use of tactical nuclear weapons by the United States in Iran, describing such a move as "catastrophic."
According to a report by Al-Qahera News, Russian officials emphasized that any deployment of nuclear arms — even on a limited, tactical scale — would have devastating consequences for regional and global security.
The warning comes amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, where escalating military confrontations between Iran and Israel have raised concerns of broader international involvement.
While the Kremlin did not elaborate on specific intelligence or actions being considered by the U.S., it urged all parties to exercise restraint and avoid measures that could spiral into full-scale war.
Moscow has consistently voiced opposition to the use of nuclear force and continues to advocate for diplomatic solutions to resolve the growing crisis in the region.
