Iran warns of stronger response if Israel resumes attacks

Iran’s army chief Amir Hatami said on June 8 that any renewed Israeli attacks would trigger a stronger military response, accusing Israel of violating a ceasefire agreement.

“The responsibility for the aggression of the Zionist regime lies with the United States, and if the enemy repeats its hostile actions, our measures will be more severe,” Hatami said, Iran International reports.

He also stated that Israel had breached the ceasefire despite the presence of a mediator in Iran engaged in talks.
