The deputy commander of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters issued the first official Iranian military response to the Israeli strike on Beirut's Dahieh neighborhood, warning that 'the Zionist crimes in the southern suburbs of Beirut will not go unanswered,' according to N12.
The deputy commander of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters, the unified command of the IRGC and regular armed forces, warned Monday afternoon that the Israeli strike in the Dahieh neighborhood of Beirut 'will not go unanswered.' N12 cited the statement, attributed to the commander via a Telegram post, as the first official Iranian military response to the operation.
As The Zioneer reported at 15:24, a similar threat was attributed to a deputy Quds Force commander. The new statement comes from the broader Khatam al-Anbiya command structure, which has previously issued threats directed at Israeli and US targets. A bulletin at 15:26 noted a Houthi-aligned Khatam al-Anbiya commander also threatened retaliation.
The statement did not specify a timeline, location, or nature of any response. The strike on Dahieh, a Hezbollah stronghold in south Beirut, occurred over the weekend. No independent confirmation of operational preparations was available.
