Iran Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian says, “We can expect a preemptive action by the resistance front in the coming hours.”
“Leaders of the resistance will not allow the Zionist regime to take any action in Gaza. … All options are open and we cannot be indifferent to the war crimes committed against the people of Gaza,” Amirabdollahian tells state TV, according to Reuters.
“The resistance front is capable of waging a long-term war with the enemy,” he says — not elaborating on the kind of action Israel should expect.
