PANews reported on June 6 that, according to Cailian Press, Mohsen Rezaei, military advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader, warned in an interview with CNN on June 5 that if the war continues and the US does not lift its naval blockade against Iran, the conflict could spread to a wider area, including the Indian Ocean, and Iran would also attack more US military bases, at which point the US would suffer "very heavy" losses.
