Tehran: Trump and Netanyahu Statements are a 'Threat' – Warns of Retaliation

Iran has condemned the statements made by Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the ongoing protests in the country, labeling them as a “threat” and warning of retaliation. The Iranian government believes these statements incite violence and seek to undermine national unity. General Amir Hatami stated that Iran will respond decisively to any action taken by “enemies.” Trump had threatened military intervention if protesters were killed, while Netanyahu offered his support to the demonstrators. Iranian diplomacy accused Israel of seeking to destabilize the situation.
