TL;DR

IRGC spokesperson Fatima Mojarahani told Sky News Arabia on Thursday that Iran remains committed to its agreement with the United States but will not hesitate to act if it continues to see the Lebanese people suffering. She said the armed forces are prepared to strike the enemy at any moment, and warned the "occupying enemy" to stop the attacks in Lebanon or face severe consequences.

01 · THE DISPATCH

In an interview with Sky News Arabia on Thursday evening, IRGC spokesperson Fatima Mojarahani delivered a firm warning to Israel and the United States amid ongoing Israeli strikes in Lebanon. She stated that Iran is committed to the recently signed memorandum of understanding with the US but considers the war in Lebanon a red line. "The armed forces of the state are ready to strike the enemy at any moment," she said, adding that the "occupying enemy" must halt attacks on Lebanon or face consequences that would not serve its interests.

The statement follows a series of IRGC warnings over the past week. As The Zioneer reported on June 14, the IRGC declared it does not betray its allies and that a response to recent hostilities is coming. On June 11, the corps announced readiness for expected US strikes and vowed an immediate response. The broader context includes a nuclear deal framework signed between Tehran and Washington, under which the US is expected to enforce an end to the war in Lebanon — a condition Iran's Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stressed.

Mojarahani's remarks represent the first direct on-record warning from an IRGC official to a Western media outlet since the deal was signed. The interview did not specify what form an Iranian response might take, nor whether it would involve direct military action by Iran or through its proxy forces in the region. The timing and nature of any escalation remain unverified.
