Iran's acting defense minister attacked Israel in a statement Tuesday, claiming its continued existence depends on creating crises and tensions in the Middle East. According to him, Israel is working to destabilize the region in order to ensure its own survival.
Iran's acting defense minister issued a sharp accusation against Israel on Tuesday, stating that the Jewish state's continued existence relies on generating crises and tensions across the Middle East. Speaking in a statement carried by Iranian outlets, the official asserted that Israel deliberately undermines regional stability as a survival strategy.
The remark is the latest in a sustained series of Iranian threats and accusations against Israel. Over the past three weeks, as The Zioneer reported, Tehran has repeatedly warned of consequences for Israeli strikes in Lebanon and accused Israel and the United States of violating ceasefires. Earlier this month, the acting defense minister himself vowed not to retreat from punishing 'the aggressor,' without specifying a timeline or operational plan.
The statement is single-sourced via Iranian state media and contains no new operational threat or specific policy shift. It reflects the ongoing rhetorical posture from Tehran amid the broader confrontation with Israel.
