Iran's Warning: 'Uncontrolled Explosion' if Gaza War Persists
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian warned that the continuation of the Gaza war could lead to a regional explosion, as the conflict has already expanded to include Lebanon and Yemen. He pointed to attacks against US bases in Iraq and Syria, Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea, and violence on Israel's northern border as evidence of the escalating regional violence. Amirabdollahian stated that Israel, which he considers a US regional proxy, cannot defeat Hamas even if it fights them for the next 10 years. He called for the US to abandon its support for Israel and expressed Iran's support for Hamas as a liberation movement against Israeli occupation. He also stated that neither Iran nor Israel believes in a two-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
