Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stressed in a meeting with members of the Hamas Political Bureau during his visit to Doha that “Israel” will receive a harsher response from the Iranian armed forces if it commits the slightest mistake.
He said, “Western countries made false promises to Iran and called on it to exercise restraint in order to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, but the continuation of Israeli crimes forced us to direct a harsh response to Israel.”
Bazeshkian stressed that the assassination of Hamas Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh was one of the most painful events in his life, as he was a guest at his inauguration ceremony.
Also from Qatar, the Iranian president announced earlier yesterday, Wednesday, during a joint press conference with the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, that the United States and European countries asked Iran to delay its response to the assassination of Haniyeh, in order to “give a chance for negotiations.”
Pezeshkian said that Tehran was patient in responding “in order to bring peace,” but that “Israel,” instead of stopping the killing, increased its crimes in Gaza and Lebanon, “so we responded.”
