TEHRAN (Iran News) Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei has strongly condemned the heinous crime committed by the Israeli regime in the bombing of the Nasser Medical Complex, southern Gaza’s main hospital.

In reaction to the martyrdom of at least 20 patients and medical staff, as well as five journalists during the Israeli savage bombing on Monday, Baghaei described it as a brutal war crime, designed and carried out by the Israeli regime as part of its plan for the genocide of the Palestinians, with the intent of erasing Palestine as a nation and identity.

He described the ongoing inaction of international bodies and self-proclaimed advocates of human rights in the face of severe violations of human rights and international humanitarian law in Gaza and the West Bank as shameful. “Israeli attack”

Baghaei emphasized the legal and moral responsibility of all governments to stop the genocide and punish the Nazi-like and racist Zionist criminals, adding that the arms and political supporters of the occupying regime, particularly the United States, were partners in the heinous crimes committed against the Palestinian people and must be held accountable by the international community.

TEHRAN (Iran News) –Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani has warned that Tehran would respond to any fresh Israeli “mistake” against the country “within seconds”.

“In case of repetition of another mistake, they should expect a harsher, faster, and more immediate response,” he said on Monday.

“This time, the Zionists should know this that they will not have a 12-day-long timespace,” the official noted, adding, “The response that they are going to receive [this time around] cannot be measured by [such time standards as] days or hours, but [will come in a matter of] seconds.”

On April 1, the Israeli regime committed a terrorist attack against Iran’s diplomatic premises in the Syrian capital Damascus.

The Israeli attack resulted in the martyrdom of Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, a commander of the Quds Force of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), his deputy, General Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, and five of their accompanying officers.

In retaliation, the IRGC targeted the occupied territories late on Saturday with a barrage of drones and missiles. The retaliatory strikes, dubbed Operation True Promise, has inflicted damage on Israeli military bases across the Palestinian occupied territories.

“If there is any [measure of] rationality within the Zionist regime, they [will know this that they] must not repeat their strategic mistake with another mistake,” Bagheri said.

The Zionists, the official stated, should know that if their mistake concerning the Iranian consulate warrants such a crushing retaliation, then their likely malign intentions against the Iranian soil would “principally entail a much more vehement response”.

Amid speculation about the potential Israeli attack, senior Iranian political and military leaders, including President Ebrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, have warned of a stronger and more severe response.
