Iran has issued a stark warning to Israel, threatening direct intervention should Israel launch a ground offensive in Gaza, according to Axios.
By World Israel News Staff
Axios has reported that in a diplomatic move on Saturday, Iran conveyed a message to Israel expressing its desire to avoid further escalation in the ongoing Hamas-Israel conflict.
The message emphasized that while Iran seeks to prevent a regional war, it would feel compelled to intervene if Israel continues its military operations in Gaza.
The communication occurred between Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and UN envoy to the Middle East Tor Wennesland in Beirut, with Wennesland subsequently relaying the message to Israeli officials.
The situation is critical as any direct or indirect involvement by Iran, including support for terrorist groups, could transform the current conflict into a regional war.
