Seyed Ofoqhi, a representative of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in the Iranian parliament, said the US must fulfill its commitments under the memorandum of understanding and prevent attacks on Lebanon, or Iran will act to defend the Lebanese people and unite the fronts of Iraq and Yemen, according to reports.
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps representative in the Iranian parliament Seyed Ofoqhi warned Friday that the United States must fulfill its commitments under the memorandum of understanding with Iran and prevent attacks on Lebanon, or Iran will act to defend the Lebanese people and unite the fronts of Iraq and Yemen, according to reports from the source.
The threat to open additional fronts in Iraq and Yemen marks a notable escalation in Iranian rhetoric, beyond the general warnings issued by other officials in recent weeks. The statement comes amid a series of warnings from Iranian officials about the MoU. As The Zioneer has reported, on June 15 the Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman said the US must enforce the MoU; on June 16 Foreign Minister Araghchi said any Israeli attack on Lebanon violates the deal; on June 18 the IRGC spokesperson said Iran is committed to the agreement but ready to strike if Lebanon attacks continue; and on June 28 the IRGC threatened to halt negotiations over alleged US ceasefire violations.
It remains unclear whether the IRGC parliament representative's statement reflects official policy or an individual position, and no independent verification of the report is available.
