Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi says Israel’s ongoing airstrikes and ground operation in Gaza “may force everyone to take action.”
“Zionist regime’s crimes have crossed the red lines, which may force everyone to take action,” Raisi writes on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“Washington asks us to not do anything, but they keep giving widespread support to Israel. The US sent messages to the Axis of Resistance but received a clear response on the battlefield,” Raisi writes.
Iran has long warned that Israel’s war against the Tehran-backed Hamas terror group may be expanded.
Both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden have cautioned Tehran against involvement, including via its proxies, chief among them Lebanon-based terror group Hezbollah.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
