The Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Headquarters threatened on Friday that it views Israeli military aircraft movements in the airspace of several countries neighboring Iran as a dangerous act and a threat to Tehran. According to the statement, if the United States does not restrain Israel, Iran will not tolerate any threat against it and reserves the right to respond to such dangerous actions.
The Khatam al-Anbiya Emergency Headquarters — Iran's supreme unified military command — issued a fresh warning on Friday, characterizing Israeli military aircraft movements in the airspace of several unnamed neighboring states as a 'dangerous act' and a direct threat to Iran. The statement calls on the United States to restrain Israel and warns that if Washington does not do so, Tehran will not tolerate any threat and reserves the right to respond.
The warning follows a series of threats from the same command in recent weeks. As The Zioneer reported, on Tuesday June 16 Khatam al-Anbiya threatened a 'harsh response' over Israeli operations in southern Lebanon, and on June 10 it issued a threat directed at the United States. Earlier threats in June have also warned of retaliation for Israeli strikes and for any aggression launched from a third country's territory.
The Friday statement is the latest in a pattern of escalating rhetoric from Iran's unified military command, though it does not specify the timing or nature of any planned response. There was no immediate Israeli or US reaction to the warning.
