In a recent interview with FRANCE 24, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar issued a stern warning to Iran regarding potential military actions against Israel. He emphasized that any attack from Tehran would provoke a "severe" response from Israel.
Sa'ar accused Iran of continuing its pursuit of nuclear weapons and reiterated Israel's commitment to preventing such developments. He stated, "If we are attacked by Iran, we will surely respond heavily," while expressing hope that Iran would refrain from making this mistake.
Additionally, amid rising tensions in the West Bank, Sa'ar defended Israel's settlement policies and dismissed European criticism of the E1 settlement expansion, asserting Israel's right to inhabit its land.
