Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi issued a statement Friday attacking Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, calling the Israeli government a 'murderous death cult based in Tel Aviv' that threatens all humanity. Araghchi said Ben Gvir's actions are not the outburst of a random murderer but a public message from the Israeli regime, accusing it of seeking perpetual war.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Friday issued a sharply worded rhetorical attack directed at Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, framing Ben Gvir's public actions as official Israeli policy rather than the conduct of an individual extremist. Speaking in Farsi in a statement circulated via Iranian state-aligned channels, Araghchi described the Israeli government as a 'murderous death cult based in Tel Aviv' that poses a threat to all humanity and seeks perpetual war. The remarks appear to be part of Iran's broader propaganda campaign leveraging Ben Gvir's more controversial statements to depict Israel as a destabilizing regional actor. No new policy announcements or security developments accompanied the statement. The Zioneer has no prior reporting on this specific exchange.
