The General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces announced that Israeli embassies worldwide would become legitimate targets in the event of a possible attack by Israel on the Iranian embassy in Lebanon.
Modern.az reports that IRNA disseminated information on this matter.
According to the information, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi, spokesperson for the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, issued a warning after Israel's threat that it might target the Iranian embassy located in Beirut.
General Shekarchi stated that “Israel, a criminal and evil force,” has recently threatened to strike the Iranian embassy in Lebanon. According to him, if such a step is taken, Iran, despite having refrained from threatening and harming Israel's diplomatic missions to date, taking international norms into account, will be compelled to declare Israeli embassies legitimate targets.
Shekarchi added that Iran is determined to bring “criminal Israel and criminal America” to their knees and will not back down under any circumstances. He emphasized that any attack against Iran's diplomatic mission will certainly be met with a response.
