'Will send Netanyahu to hell’: Iran warns of ‘confrontation’ if US blockade continues
Iran has issued a dire warning to Israel and the United States, threatening a "severe confrontation" if Washington maintains its blockade. Supreme National Security Council Secretary Major General Mohsen Rezaei vowed to send Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to hell if tensions escalate further. Rezaei claimed Netanyahu's actions have brought the end of the Zionist regime's existence near and accused him of spreading false information about an alleged Iranian plot to assassinate U.S. President Donald Trump's son.
He accused Trump of panicking over the alleged plot and moving erratically. Rezaei warned that any renewed conflict with Israel would enter a new phase, particularly over Lebanon, and Iran would be prepared for a new type of war. He also threatened to retaliate against U.S. economic interests in the region if the blockade persists.
Meanwhile, Qatar stepped up diplomatic efforts to reduce tensions, with Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in Tehran to discuss regional security and efforts to restore dialogue. Pezeshkian emphasized that Iran is not seeking to escalate the conflict and backed resolving disputes through negotiations, stating that the language of force and threats is not a solution.
