Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says Tehran does not seek war with Israel, but is ready to deliver “an appropriate response” to Israeli strikes this week on Iranian military sites.
“We do not seek war but we will defend the rights of our nation and country,” Pezeshkian tells a cabinet meeting, adding: “We will give an appropriate response to the aggression of the Zionist regime.”
