FM Warns Israel of Iran’s Stronger Action

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said the country’s retaliatory military operation against Israel is over, but warned the Zionist regime that it will have to face a stronger response if it intends to react.

“Earlier this evening, we exercised self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter, targeting solely military & security sites in charge of genocide in Gaza and Lebanon,” Araqchi said in a post on his X account on Tuesday night.

“We did so after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give space for a ceasefire in Gaza,” he said.

“Our action is concluded unless Israeli regime decides to invite further retaliation. In that scenario, our response will be stronger and more powerful,” the Iranian foreign minister warned.

“Israel's enablers now have a heightened responsibility to rein in the warmongers in Tel Aviv instead of getting involved in their folly,” Araqchi noted.

On Tuesday evening, Iran responded to the Israeli assassination of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah Secretary General Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC general Abbas Nilforoushan by launching as many as 200 ballistic missiles toward the Zionist regime’s military and intelligence bases all over the occupied Palestinian territories.
