Iran warns expansion of Israel-Gaza war 'inevitable'
An expansion of the scope of the war in Gaza is “inevitable” due to Israel’s heightened aggression, Al Jazeera reported, citing Iran’s foreign minister.
Hossein Amirabdollahian made the statement in a phone conversation with Qatari counterpart Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, Iran’s Press TV reported on Friday.
“Due to the expansion of the intensity of the war against Gaza’s civilian residents, expansion of the scope of the war has become inevitable,” Amirabdollahian said.
It is unclear what he meant by an “inevitable expansion” of the conflict.
Separately, Amirabdollahian said on his X account on Thursday: “Time is fast running out for Tel Aviv’s crimes to continue.”
“The only benefit of Netanyahu was that he made the foundations of the fake Israeli regime more shaky and showed the criminal, violent, and aggressive face of the Zionist regime in the massacre of women and children in Gaza,” he added.
“Undoubtedly, the future belongs to Palestine,” Amirabdollahian wrote.
