Brigadier General Mohammad Jafar Asadi said Israel’s strike on Beirut’s southern suburbs would not go “unanswered,” signaling Tehran could retaliate.
Asadi, deputy commander of Iran’s highest military command, delivered the warning to Defa Press after the Beirut attack reported earlier Sunday.
The statement adds direct Iranian military pressure to the fallout from the strike, widening the risk that violence linked to Lebanon could spread further across the region.
