Iran threatens Israel: Stop attacks on Gaza, otherwise there will be consequences

During a visit to Iraq on Thursday, Iran's foreign minister said that if Israel does not stop its attacks on civilians in Gaza, the region will face a harsh response.

"They cannot put Gaza under complete siege and bombard citizens and commit war crimes and not expect any response, " Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said in a statement released by the foreign ministry.

Amirabdollahian met with Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani on Thursday and was expected to travel to Lebanon, where he will meet with officials on Friday.

Questions have swirled about Iran's role in the attack launched by the Palestinian militant group Hamas on Saturday in Israel. Hamas officials have denied direct Iranian involvement, and to date no government worldwide has provided direct evidence that Iran orchestrated the attack. However, many have pointed to Iran's long-standing sponsorship of Hamas.
