Iranian MP says war is not over, vows to respond to any threat

Iran remains prepared to deliver a strong response to any further actions by Israel or the United States, a senior lawmaker said on Friday, warning that "the war is not over."

Ebrahim Rezai, spokesperson for parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, made the comments during a Friday prayer gathering in Dashtestan, southern Iran, according to state media.

“We are fully ready to respond decisively to any movement by the Zionist regime and the United States,” he said. “Any miscalculation will be met with a firm reaction from our armed forces.”

Rezai accused Israel of launching its attack on Iran based on “false reports from the International Atomic Energy Agency,” and said "Western assumptions about Iranian weakness had proven wrong".
