Iran has called on Middle Eastern countries and Muslims in the region to provide information about American and Israeli military assets. Brigadier General Abul Fazl Shekarchi, spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces, made the appeal in a statement published by the state-run Defa Press on Wednesday. He said the data would help Iran carry out more precise attacks, reducing civilian casualties during ongoing conflicts.

Shekarchi accused the United States and Israel of using regional populations as human shields and urged people not to serve as protection for American forces. He argued that sharing intelligence would enhance regional security and help free local populations from what he described as American and Israeli control. The Iranian official also alleged that US and Israeli forces were deliberately targeting civilians, including women and children, out of frustration over battlefield losses.

The statement comes amid reports of intensified Iranian attacks on Israel, including claims of strikes on Israeli intelligence headquarters and injuries to 179 people within the past 24 hours.
