Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister, Araghchi, has criticized the US for supplying a record amount of arms to Israel and deploying troops to operate advanced missile systems in the country, putting American lives at risk. This comes as Washington considers sending a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system to Israel.
While on a regional tour to ease tensions, Araghchi emphasized Iran’s efforts to prevent a full-scale war in the region but stated that there are no red lines when it comes to defending Iranian people and interests. This follows a recent missile strike by Iran in response to the assassination of senior IRGC officials.
The Israeli regime is contemplating its response to the missile strike, highlighting the escalating tensions in the area. Araghchi’s statements reflect Iran’s readiness to defend itself and its allies amidst increasing military activities in the region.
Overall, the situation underscores the complex dynamics at play in the Middle East and the ongoing power struggles between key players.
