Iran to Keep Pummeling Zionist Regime, FM Vows
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Debunking the falsified report invented by the Israeli regime that Iran has attacked a hospital in Tel Aviv, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi emphasized that Tehran’s retaliatory military operations against the Zionist regime will go on to punish the aggressor.
“Earlier today, our powerful Armed Forces accurately eliminated an Israeli Military Command, Control & Intelligence HQ and another vital target,” Araqchi said in a post on his X account on Thursday.
“The blast wave caused superficial damage to a small section of the nearby, and largely evacuated, Soroka Military Hospital. The facility is mainly used to treat Israeli soldiers engaged in the Genocide in Gaza 25 miles away, where Israel has destroyed or damaged 94% of Palestinian hospitals,” the foreign minister explained.
“It is the Israeli regime and not Iran that initiated all this bloodshed, and it is Israeli war criminals and not Iranians who are targeting hospitals and civilians. Hundreds of innocent Iranians have been murdered in cold blood since Israel launched its illegal war against the Iranian people last week,” Araqchi added.
“We call on Israelis to heed our evacuation orders before strikes and to avoid proximity to military and intelligence sites. Our powerful Armed Forces will continue to pummel the criminals who target our people until they cease and pay for their criminal aggression against our nation,” he stated.
The Zionist regime waged an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran on June 13. It carried out airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear, military and residential sites that resulted in the martyrdom of scores of top military commanders, nuclear scientists and ordinary citizens.
The Iranian military forces started counterattacks immediately afterwards. They Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force has carried out 14 waves of retaliatory missile strikes against the Zionist regime as of June 19 as part of Operation True Promise III.
