JAKARTA - Iran will respond immediately and decisively to any threat against its people or leadership, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a social media post on Wednesday.

Menlu Araghchi's post on social media was attached to a comment made by Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, who stated that Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei "was targeted for assassination."

"The US president has committed to silencing their 'pets' in Tel Aviv. If they ignore their master, Iran will teach them a lesson," Foreign Minister Araghchi tweeted, launching Anadolu (1/7).

The United States and Iran held technical talks in Doha on Wednesday in their efforts to agree on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and securing a lasting ceasefire, a source directly familiar with the talks and an Iranian official said.

The talks were held following the two countries' peace efforts with Pakistani and Qatari mediators who held the Lucerne Lake Summit on June 21 in Switzerland, after US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a 14-point Memorandum of Understanding on June 18.

It is known that the US and Israel attacked Tehran and a number of other cities in Iran on February 28.

The Mullah State retaliated by attacking Israeli territory and US infrastructure in the Middle Eastern countries, before the ceasefire was announced on April 8.
