News - Middle East: Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warns the Zionist regime against testing Tehran's resolve, saying Tel Aviv is fully aware of the wide-range of targets inside Israel that are within the reach of Iranian missiles. 

Araghchi was speaking at the “Al-Aqsa Flood; The Beginning of Nasrallah” conference in the capital Tehran on Tuesday.

He stressed that the historic operation, launched by Hamas against the occupying entity in October last year, “has undoubtedly brought a bitter experience to the Zionist regime and inflicted a heavy defeat on it”, echoing earlier remarks by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

He stressed, “We tell the Zionist regime not to test Iran’s resolve, as any attack on Iran will be met with an even stronger response than before.”

Back on October 1, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) launched hundreds of supersonic ballistic missiles towards the Israeli entity’s military, espionage and intelligence bases all over the occupied territories, inflicting damage on them.

The operation - dubbed Operation True Promise II - came in response to the regime’s assassinations of Hamas’ chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, Hezbollah’s leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC commander Abbas Nilforoushan, an Iranian military advisory in Lebanon, in Beirut.

“We monitor and analyze every move with precision, and we neither hurry nor hesitate to give a response,” Araghchi emphasized.

Highlighting that the issue of Palestine has become the world’s foremost concern, Iran’s top diplomat stated that the Islamic resistance is strong in all fields, including both software and hardware.

Araghchi also said that anti-Israeli resistance “has never been reliant on only one individual.”

Following Iran’s massive launch of a barrage of ballistic missiles against Israel early this month, the Tel Aviv regime has time and again vowed to launch a retaliatory attack against the Islamic Republic.

“Any attack by the Zionist regime on Iran's infrastructure will be met with an even stronger response,” Araghchi vowed, adding, “Our enemies know what targets inside the Zionist regime are within our reach.”

“They have seen the power of our missiles with their own eyes,” he noted.

Back in April, the IRGC launched extensive missile and drone strikes on the Israeli-occupied territories. The series of retaliatory strikes - dubbed Operation True Promise - inflicted damage on Israeli military bases across the occupied lands.

Araghchi also emphasized the commitment of Iran’s current administration to defend the principles and ideals of Palestine and the resistance movement.

“The execution of ‘Operation True Promise 1&2’ by the armed forces demonstrated Iran’s determination and resolve that any aggressive action will be met with a response from the Islamic Republic,” he stressed.

Araghchi, who has just returned from his tour to Lebanon and Syria, said that “the message of his visit “is that Iran has been, is, and will always be a supporter of the resistance with all of its strength.”
