Iran’s Regime Acts Like Nazi Regime – Israeli Envoy

"We were attacked last night from four corners of the Middle East with proxies shooting at us, firing missiles and ballistic missiles, drones and cruise missiles."

"This is like a real war. I mean, this is a declaration of war," he said, before adding that Israel would exercise restraint.

As tensions continue to escalate between Israel and Iran, the situation remains precarious, with the specter of conflict looming large.

In a bold statement underscoring the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson Daniel Hagari admonished Iran's regime for disseminating falsehoods and squandering precious resources.

Speaking in an interview with Iran International, Hagari urged the Iranian government to cease its propagation of lies and fabricated videos aimed at the Iranian populace.

Hagari minced no words as he accused the Iranian regime of wasting both money and resources, emphasizing that the regime's futile endeavors rendered hundreds of drones and missiles futile, ultimately consigning them to the metaphorical "garbage" heap.

Hagari's message wasn't confined solely to reproach; he extended a hand of solidarity and support to the Iranian people, affirming a shared commonality between them and the citizens of Israel. He emphasized that the true enemy of the Iranian people lay not with Israel but with their own oppressive regime.

"The people of Iran has a common enemy with Israel. It is the regime of Iran. You deserve better. You deserve freedom. Someone will hear your voice and we hear you in Israel. We hear you," Hagari added.

Hagari reaffirmed Israel's unwavering resolve to defend its sovereignty, emphasizing the IDF's preparedness to utilize its formidable capabilities.

Moreover, earlier today, revelations emerged that Israel's intended retaliatory strike was thwarted by the United States at the eleventh hour. According to an Israeli source cited by Iran International:

"The US prevented Israel from launching the attack it had planned in response to the Iranian strike 'at the last minute' on Saturday night."

In addition to Iran’s attack on Israel, the representative of the Switzerland, Pascale Baeriswyl, condemned Iran’s seizure of a cargo ship “affiliated with” Israel near the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday.

IRGC's Navy Special Force took control of the Portuguese-flagged vessel after the heliborne Iranian forces landed on its deck. The incident took place 50 nautical miles (92 km) northeast of the Fujairah, UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) announced.

Ambassador Barbara Woodward said at the UNSC meeting that the UK will continue to stand up for Israel's security and that of regional partners, including Jordan and Iraq, after Iran attack.

“Iran’s actions do nothing to advance the prospects for peace in Israel and Gaza,” she highlighted.

France's representative to the UN, Nathalie Broadhurst, said, "By deciding on such an unprecedented action, Iran is taking a new level in its destabilizing actions and is taking the risk of a military escalation for which it would be responsible. We call on Iran and its allies to finally and without further delay cease their destabilizing activities throughout the region."

US Deputy Representative to UN Robert Wood emphasized that the UN Security Council has an obligation to not let Iran's actions go unanswered. He added that US in coming days will explore additional measures to hold Iran accountable.

Highlighting that Iran will be held responsible if Iran’s proxies take action against the US or Israeli targets, he added that UN Security Council must unequivocally condemn Iran's aggressive actions and call for Iran and its partners to cease their attacks.

“It (Iran) launched over 300 munitions, including more than 100 ballistic missiles and land attack cruise missiles at Israel, as well as explosive unmanned aerial vehicles. Iran's reckless actions not only posed a threat to populations in Israel, but also to other UN member states in the region, including Jordan and Iraq. The Security Council has an obligation to not let Iran's actions go unanswered."

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for maximum restraint on Sunday after Iran's attack on Israel, as he reminded members of the world body that acts of reprisal involving the use of force are barred under international law.

"The Middle East is on the brink. The people of the region are confronting a real danger of a devastating full-scale conflict. Now is the time to defuse and de-escalate," Guterres told a meeting of the UN Security Council.
