Iranian parliament member Ebrahim Rezaei said Saturday that if the US or Israel attack Iran, Tehran will respond powerfully and 'return the region and its facilities to the stone age,' according to a statement. He dismissed the notion that a two-day market closure could be exploited for a quick strike as an 'illusion' that Netanyahu sold to Trump.
Iranian parliament member Ebrahim Rezaei, a member of the Islamic Consultative Assembly's security committee, issued a new threat on Saturday, warning that if the United States or Israel attack Iran, Tehran will respond with overwhelming force and 'return the region and its facilities to the stone age.' The statement, carried by Iranian media, also dismissed the idea that the two-day closure of global stock markets could be exploited for a rapid strike to subdue Iran as an 'illusion' that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had convinced President Donald Trump of.
Rezaei's escalation follows his earlier remarks on Saturday, in which he called the strike-timing notion an 'illusion' that Netanyahu had whispered to Trump, as The Zioneer reported earlier. The new threat adds a direct warning of regional devastation.
The statement comes amid heightened tensions between Iran, the United States, and Israel, with a series of threats from Iranian officials in recent weeks. Senior advisor to the Supreme Leader, Mohsen Rezaei, previously warned that Iranian missiles would sink the US deeper into 'the mud,' and other officials have cautioned against any military action. The United States has been pursuing diplomatic channels, with President Trump expressing optimism about a nuclear deal framework.
