Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian hails Tehran’s missile attack against Israel as a “decisive response” to what he called Israeli “aggression.”

“In accordance with legitimate rights and with the aim of [establishing] peace and security in Iran and the region, a decisive response has been made to the Zionist regime’s aggression,” Pezeshkian posts on X.
