Warn Israel Not To Test Iran, Foreign Minister Araghchi: Our Response Will Be Firm

JAKARTA - Iran's foreign minister on Tuesday warned Israel against launching an attack, saying any attacks on Iran's infrastructure would be rewarded with stronger retaliation.

Iran attacked Israel last week with a number of missiles targeting various targets. Israel has vowed to retaliate.

"We recommend the Zionist regime (Israel) not to test the resolution of the Islamic Republic. If there is an attack on our country, our response will be stronger," Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a televised address.

Every attack on Iran's infrastructure will be rewarded with stronger retaliation, and "our enemies know what targets are in the Zionist regime (Israel) that are within our reach," Araqchi added.

Separately, Iran's Minister of Oil landed on Kharg Island, where the country's main export terminal, holding talks with naval commanders on Sunday, the oil ministry news site Badminton said, amid fears Israel would attack energy facilities.

In the United States, President Joe Biden said on Friday he did not think Israel had yet to decide how to respond.
