The U.S. military is watching closely for an uptick in Iranian activities in central and South America after Iran-backed terrorists attacked Israel Saturday, sparking heated rhetoric from Tehran and its proxies that have operations in the Western Hemisphere, a U.S. general said Wednesday.

Iran’s supreme leader has praised Hamas for carrying out a massive attack on Israel and is known to provide weapons and funding in support of Hamas activities, as well as the larger organization, Hezbollah, in Lebanon that has also clashed with Tel Aviv since the attacks. U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHOM) is concerned about escalating Iranian and Iran-backed activity in its area of responsibility generated by the instability, SOUTHCOM Commander Gen. Laura Richardson said at a think tank event.
“We’re watching very, very closely. In terms of working with our partner nations, obviously, they’re concerned too,” Richardson said.
“In terms of indicators and things like that right now as a result, immediate results of the attacks that have taken place, I think we’ve seen the condemnations that have come from the region regarding the attacks. We will continue to be very poised and watching the environment very, very closely,” she added.
