Iranian Defense Minister Mohammad Reza Ashtiani warned on Sunday that Iran would launch a "serious strike" on the United States in the event that the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip does not cease.
According to Tasnim, the brigadier general stated that Iran's advice to the US is to end the war "immediately," and "ensure a ceasefire."
Ashtiani warned that if this is not implemented, the US will "face a serious strike."
Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have murdered with cold blood 9,500 people in the Gaza Strip throughout the 30 days of aggression on the blockaded strip, the Government Media Office in Gaza reported on Saturday.
Salama Marouf, the director of the office, said Saturday evening that the total number of martyrs from the aggression has risen to 9,500, including 3,900 children and 2,509 women.
Marouf also announced that Israeli airstrikes have destroyed 55 mosques, three universities, three churches, and five buildings belonging to the Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs in Gaza.
Regarding the medical sector's losses, Marouf noted that 16 hospitals, 32 primary care centers, 27 ambulances, and 105 medical facilities had been affected.
Meanwhile, the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, claimed he was pained by images of innocent Palestinian children, reiterated the US' support for the Israeli occupation by expressing that so long as the US stands, "Israel will not stand alone.”
According to CNN, top Biden administration officials have reportedly warned "Israel" that there is only a limited window of time to accomplish its goal of "eradicating Hamas" from Gaza, as it will become more difficult to sustain the aggression on the Gaza strip, due to the international outcry.
Exclusive: Iran commander warns US of interfering in Palestine
The General Commander of the Iranian Army, Brigadier General Abdolrahim Mousavi, said on Tuesday that the United States will accelerate its demise if it keeps pace with the Zionist entity.
In an exclusive statement to Al Mayadeen on the sidelines of the graduation of a new batch of Iranian armed forces officers, Mousavi emphasized the need for the United States to "act sensibly and allow justice to prevail, not to aid falsehood."
Similarly, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian warned that the escalation of Israeli occupation crimes will further complicate matters in Palestine and the region.
Saturday in Washington, DC, witnessed a crowd marching toward the White House in solidarity with Occupied Palestine and attempting to break through the security gates in denunciation of US President Joe Biden's support for "Israel".
The protesters smeared red paint on the White House security fence while waving Palestinian flags and shaking the fence as personnel stood by and looked.
Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi relayed to reporters that “the attempted gate trespass from earlier was handled without incident,” and added that no arrests were made.
