Warnings of Escalation:
Iran’s foreign minister stated on Wednesday that attacks on Israel and its interests by the “Axis of Resistance” will cease if the Gaza war concludes. He warned that the on-going conflict could escalate tensions across the Middle East.
US Supporting War Crimes:
The Islamic Republic supports Hamas in its conflict with Israel. Hamas is causing significant damage to Gaza through air and ground offensives. Tehran accuses the United States of supporting Israeli crimes in Gaza. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Amirabdollahian stated that ending the Gaza genocide would bring an end to military actions and crises in the region.
Security of Red Sea:
The security of the Red Sea is linked to Gaza’s developments. If Israel’s actions in Gaza persist, everyone will endure consequences. The resistance fronts will remain active under these circumstances.
Houthi’s – A Terrorist Group:
On Friday, U.S. President Joe Biden labeled Yemen’s Houthi forces, backed by Iran, as a “terrorist” group. American and British warplanes, ships, and submarines conducted numerous airstrikes across Yemen overnight.
Houthi’s Stance:
The Houthi militia targets Israel to show solidarity with Palestine. They’ve warned of a “strong and effective response” to the U.S. and British strikes.
Amirabdollahian mentioned Tehran sharing intelligence with Iraq about alleged Mossad activities in the Kurdish region. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claimed an attack on Israel’s supposed “spy HQ” in Erbil, Iraq, on Monday. Iraq subsequently denied the existence of any such spy center in the country.
