Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 16:50

TL;DR

Israel's Foreign Ministry accused the Iranian regime of lying, stating that Iran's proxy Hezbollah attacked Israel and that Israel will not tolerate fire on its territory. Separately, Mohammad Marandi, a member of the Iranian negotiating team, said there will be no further negotiations at this stage, according to Iranian channels.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Israel's Foreign Ministry issued a sharp statement responding to Iranian threats, accusing the regime of lying and emphasizing that 'Iran's proxy Hezbollah attacked Israel.' The ministry declared that Israel will not tolerate fire on its territory. Separately, Seyed Mohammad Marandi, a member of the Iranian delegation in Islamabad, told Iranian channels there will be no further negotiations for now. The remarks come amid escalating tensions following a Hezbollah strike on Israeli territory confirmed by the IDF earlier today. Marandi's statement marks the latest in a series of Iranian signals rejecting diplomatic progress with the US, as The Zioneer reported earlier (16:46). The foreign ministry's strong language suggests an increasingly confrontational posture from Israel as it weighs a response to the Hezbollah attack.
