Iran’s Top General Warns Israel to Expect Tough Response from Resistance Front
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Zionist regime of Israel is mistaken to think that it can target Syria continually or take mischievous actions in the sea without receiving a response, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri said on Sunday.
Asked by reporters about the recent developments in the southern areas of the occupied Palestinian territories and in Syria, Major General Baqeri said, “Zionists think they can target the Syrian soil constantly and conduct acts of mischief in various places and in the sea without receiving a response.”
“The measures taken in the recent days and the future measures that would threaten their (Israel’s) interests will definitely bring them to their senses, and the future of the resistance front is bright,” the top Iranian commander added.
He said he would not comment on the perpetrator of the recent incidents, but made it clear that “the resistance front will give a fundamental response to the Zionists.”
Asked about Iran’s reaction to the continued hostile actions by the Israeli regime, Major General Baqeri said Iran’s response would not be made known now but added that the Zionist regime will not stay calm.
On Thursday, a Syrian surface-to-air missile landed near Israel’s top-secret nuclear reactor, triggering warning sirens in the Negev Desert.
The Israel army failed in its attempt to intercept the missile using its air defense systems.
The Israeli military said that in response to the launch, it attacked several missile batteries on neighboring Syria.
Syria’s official news agency SANA said its air defenses intercepted the Israeli attack in the Damascus suburbs.
