CNN News:美国增兵沙特和阿联酋 伊朗警告对伊军事打击将引发全面战争

The nation of Iran says it had nothing to do with the recent attack on oil facilities in Saudi Arabia. But Saudi Arabia and the United States say Iran was behind it, and America is taking more steps to try and isolate the Middle Eastern country. The Trump Administration announced new sanctions — penalties on Iran's economy — last Friday. The goal? To cut off international money flowing into Iran. And the U.S. government says Iran is reacting in desperation to these moves by quote "attacking its neighbors".

The American military announced that it's sending more troops and missile defense equipment to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates — two countries across the Persian Gulf from Iran. Iran's foreign minister says if any attacks are made in revenge for the Saudi oil strike, they'll result in, quote "all out war". Though he also says Iran hopes to avoid conflict. There is a group that says it's responsible for the attacks on Saudi oil facilities. Houthi rebels, who've been fighting for control of Yemen, say the attacks were made because Saudi Arabia has been fighting the Houthis in defense of Yemen's government.
But Saudi Arabia says the weapons used on the oil plants were Iranian made and that they were likely launched from north of Saudi Arabia in the direction of Iran, instead of from the southwest in the direction of Yemen. Tensions have been simmering in the Middle East since the U.S. government pulled out of a controversial nuclear deal with Iran last year. The recent attack on Saudi oil facilities has made things worse.
