The president of Iran's football federation says the organisation is negotiating with Fifa to move the country's World Cup matches from the United States to Mexico in order to ensure the safety of their players.
The discussions are taking place amid the US and Israeli strikes on Iran, which has responded with attacks on Israel and US-allied states in the Gulf as part of the conflict.
The US is co-hosting the World Cup, which takes place between 11 June and 19 July, with Canada and Mexico.
Iran are scheduled to face New Zealand on 16 June and Belgium on 21 June, both in Los Angeles, and Egypt in Seattle on 27 June.
