Iran’s President Warns of Consequences Amid Israeli Attacks
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced that a potential ceasefire between Tehran’s allies and Israel could influence Iran’s response to recent Israeli airstrikes. If Israel halts its attacks on the region’s oppressed populations, it may affect Iran’s retaliation, he stated. The remarks follow Israeli strikes on Iranian military sites on October 26, a response to Iran’s missile fire against Israel earlier this month. Pezeshkian reaffirmed that Iran would not leave any assault on its sovereignty unanswered, with Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warning of severe repercussions for perceived aggressions against Iran.
