Tehran warns US against helping Israel thwart Iranian counterattack

Iran's Foreign Ministry has summoned the Swiss ambassador to Tehran -whose country represents Washington's interests in Iran - to warn the US military against providing any support to Israel, including assistance in countering Iran's retaliatory attack.

"Iran warned against any US military support for the Zionist regime, including efforts to obstruct Iran's legitimate right to self-defense, and emphasized that such acts of aggression by the Zionist regime against Iran could not have taken place without US cooperation, coordination, or at the very least, a green light," the Foreign Ministry said.

The Swiss envoy was also told that "the United States must be held accountable for its unlawful conduct in this matter."
