Asked about the Israeli assassination of Iranian military advisers in Syria, Kanaani said at a presser on Monday, “The usurping Zionist regime’s crimes against the Iranian government have never gone and won’t go unpunished.”
The spokesman warned that Iran will respond to the Israeli crimes “in its own way”.
Dismissing the Israeli prime minister’s threat of military action against Iran, he said such rhetoric reveals the aggressive nature of the Zionist regime and the degree of the threats that it poses to regional and world security.
“The essence of this (Israeli) regime is in contradiction to peace. This regime has always tried to seize every opportunity to promote insecurity in the region and the world,” he stated.
The spokesman refuted Netanyahu’s “hollow rhetoric”, reaffirmed Iran’s right to respond to the threats, and said the Zionist regime had better think about survival from the quagmire of Gaza.
