Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Saturday threatened Israel and America amid rising regional tensions in the Middle East. Khamenei said that if attacks on Iran and its allies continue, both countries will have to suffer the consequences.
According to Iranian media, Khamenei said that enemies who attack Iran and its allies, whether it is the Zionist regime or the United States, will definitely face a strong response for their actions. However, during this time Khamenei did not give information about when or how Iran might retaliate.
Israeli forces destroyed Iran's military bases
Let us tell you that on October 26, Israeli forces retaliated and destroyed Iran's military bases with air strikes. At least five people were reportedly killed in this attack. Israeli officials said after the attack that they targeted military facilities while avoiding nuclear and oil infrastructure.
Iran fired ballistic missiles at Israel in October
Israel carried out the attack in response to a ballistic missile attack by Iran in early October, which Iran said was retaliation for Israeli action against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israel had already informed the US about its intentions. However, the US has publicly distanced itself from any direct involvement.
Khamenei had already warned the officials
Iran's supreme leader Khamenei had already urged Iranian officials to carefully consider their response. Along with this, caution was given against exaggerating Israel's attack. There are now growing concerns that the situation could escalate into a major conflict, as regional leaders are already polarized over the Israel-Hamas conflict. At the same time, only a few days are left for the presidential elections in America.
