Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has warned Israel and the United States that the continuation of the war against the besieged Gaza Strip could result in “another surprise” by the resistance forces.
“In my yesterday meeting, political officials of Hamas noted that in case the war is not stopped, the region would be closer to the level of taking a bigger decision,” he told a joint press conference with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan.
Amir-Abdollahian met Fidan a day after Iran’s top diplomat sat down for talks with Hamas leaders in Qatar.
“If the war is not stopped, [the responsibility] for the expansion of the war directly lies with the Zionist regime and the US. Washington should accept the responsibility for its all-out support for the killing of people and deal with its consequences”, Amir-Abdollahian said.
“If the war continues, the conditions won’t remain the same and the resistance will make another surprise move,” he said.
The Iranian minister reaffirmed Tehran’s call for a peace conference with the participation of Muslim and Arab countries “as soon as possible.”
He also called on the Muslim world to boycott Israeli products in response to the regime’s relentless attacks against Palestinians since October 7.
