Washington: Iran has warned Israel that the situation in the Middle East will go out of control if it does not stop air strikes on Gaza. Political analysts are considering this as an indirect threat from Iran that if Israel launches a ground attack on Gaza, it can intervene.
As USA Today reports, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian warned Israel and the US on Sunday that “if they do not immediately stop crimes against humanity and genocide in Gaza, anything is possible at any time and The area will go out of control.” On the other hand, amidst the growing concern of war and escalation in the Middle East, the Israeli Army has intensified its military actions by attacking in Syria, West Bank and Gaza.
The military crackdown intensified when a convoy of humanitarian aid trucks arrived in Gaza from Egypt the next day. Media reports say the United Nations has said the aid is far below the level of need. Sheikh Naim Qassem, deputy leader of Hezbollah in Lebanon, warned Israel that it would pay a heavy price if it proceeded with a ground offensive in Gaza.
Syria said it was forced to close international airports in Damascus and Aleppo due to the Israeli attack. The Syrian Transport Ministry said landing strips at both airports were damaged by missiles and one civilian worker was killed and another wounded at Damascus International Airport. Israel has carried out several strikes in Syria since the war began, citing the need to prevent Hezbollah and other terrorist groups from bringing weapons from Iran, the report said.
Israel continues its attack on Gaza in an attempt to “free the hostages being held in Hamas cellars and underground bunkers”.
