Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said that any attack on Iranian infrastructure will be met with a similar attack, and that the 'Zionist regime' will not be immune from Iranian retaliation, according to reports.
Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, warned Friday that any attack on Iranian infrastructure will be answered with a symmetric response, and that the 'Zionist regime' will not be immune from Iranian retaliation. The statement escalates Tehran's rhetoric directly targeting Israel, alongside its longstanding threats against the United States.
The warning is the latest in a series of bellicose statements from Iranian officials in recent weeks, as The Zioneer has reported. Previous threats have come from the Iranian parliament's national security committee and military officials, all against the backdrop of heightened US-Israel-Iran tensions and reported preparations for a possible US strike on Iranian nuclear or military facilities.
Zolghadr's mention of the Zionist regime as a specific target marks a direct and explicit threat to Israel, going beyond general warnings of regional retaliation. The statement was reported by Israeli media outlets.
