Islamic Republic of Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian on Saturday asked Israel to stop its attacks on Gaza, threatening the Jewish nation that the war might expand to other parts of the Middle East if Hezbollah joins the battle, and that would make Israel suffer “a huge earthquake.”
Amirabdollahian told reporters in Beirut that Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group has taken all war scenarios into consideration and Israel should stop its attacks on Gaza as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, the Axios news site has reported that Tehran has sent Jerusalem a message through the UN that it will intervene if the campaign in Gaza continues, particularly if it launches a ground offensive. The report cited two diplomatic sources with knowledge of the matter.
The report said Amirabdollahian made the comments when he met on Saturday with UN Middle East envoy Tor Wennesland in Beirut. Later on Saturday, Amirabdollahian met in Qatar with Islamic terror outfit Hamas politburo chief Ismail Haniyeh.
“If the Israeli apartheid’s war crimes & genocide are not halted immediately, the situation could spiral out of control & ricochet far-reaching consequences—the responsibility of which lies with the UN, the Security Council & the states steering the Council toward a dead end,” Permanent Mission of I.R.Iran to UN threatened in a post on X.
