Iran concludes military operation against Israel, warns of future consequences
Iran declares conclusion of military operation against Israel, warns U.S. and Israel of dire consequences if escalations provoke further
Iran’s Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces, Sardar Bagheri, declared the conclusion of Iran’s recent military operation against Israel.
Bagheri emphasized that the operation was a response to what Iran perceived as Israel crossing its red lines, particularly citing the targeting of Iran’s consulate in Damascus and the killing of Iranian legal advisors.
‘Zionist regime’s act was crossing red lines’
Chief of staff says Iran plans no more actions against Israel.
“The Zionist regime’s act to target Iran’s consulate in Damascus and to martyr the Iranian legal advisors who were present in that country upon the invitation of the Syrian government was crossing red lines that all countries except two or three supporters of the Zionist regime condemned,” Bagheri stated.
Bagheri also highlighted the directive from Iran’s Supreme Leader, indicating that the punishment for Israel’s offensive had to be carried out.
‘If Zionist regime responds, our next operation will be much bigger’
Additionally, the Chief of Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces, warned the United States through the Swiss embassy that any cooperation with Israel in future actions would jeopardize the security of U.S. bases.
“From Iran’s perspective, the military operation against Israel has concluded,” Bagheri asserted in an interview on Iranian TV, adding that Iranian armed forces remain vigilant and prepared to act if necessary.
Bagheri also issued a stark warning, stating: “If the Zionist regime responds, our next operation will be much bigger,” underscoring Iran’s readiness for further escalation.
It’s important to note that the term “Zionist regime” is Iran’s reference to Israel.
Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon reopen airspace
Jordan, Iraq and Lebanon have reopened their airspace after closing it late Saturday in response to Iran’s drone and missile attacks against Israel, officials from the three countries confirmed on Sunday.
Jordan’s state TV reported that the country had resumed air traffic operations three hours earlier than scheduled, citing aviation authorities.
“Iraq’s aviation authority stated security risks have been overcome,” Jordan’s state TV announced.
Lebanon also declared the resumption of activities at its airport after the overnight closure, as reported by state TV.
“Lebanon remains vigilant but is committed to maintaining its aviation operations,” assured Lebanese authorities.
Reopening of airspace signifies step toward normalcy
“Iran launched explosive drones and fired missiles at Israel on Saturday night, marking its first direct attack on Israeli territory,” officials stated, indicating a heightened risk of broader regional conflict.
“The reopening of airspace signifies a step toward normalcy after the recent escalation of tensions in the region,” stated Jordanian aviation authorities.
“Jordan had prepared air defenses to intercept any drones or missiles violating its territory,” revealed two regional security sources.
Tehran’s Mehrabad airport and airports in several other Iranian cities have canceled domestic flights until Monday morning because of Middle East tensions, as the country’s western airspace remains off-limits to flights.
Additionally, U.S. and British warplanes reportedly participated in shooting down some drones heading toward Israel over the Iraq-Syria border area, according to Israel’s Channel 12.
