Iranian Deputy FM Downplays Israeli War Rhetoric“The Zionists cannot even dream of attacking Iran and they should know that even if they attack Iran in their dreams they certainly will not wake from that dream,” Baqeri Kani said on Tuesday.

Iranian officials and commanders have repeatedly warned Israel of a crushing response should it dare act against the Islamic Republic.

Commander of the Iranian Army’s Ground Force Brigadier General Kioumars Heydari warned last month that Tehran will raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground if Israel makes any mistakes.

“By the order of the Leader of the (Islamic) Revolution, we will raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground for any mistake made by the enemy,” he said.

Also, in April, Iranian President Seyed Ebrahim Rayeesi warned the Zionist regime that any slight move against Iran’s interests will turn Israel’s “center” into a target for the Iranian Armed Forces.

“The message to the Zionist regime is that if you seek to normalize relations with the countries of the region, you should know that your slightest move is not hidden from the eyes of our Armed Forces and our intelligence and security forces,” Rayeesi said, addressing a parade held in front of the mausoleum of Imam Khomeinei, the founding father of the Islamic Republic, in Southern Tehran to mark the National Army Day.  

“Just know that if the slightest move on your part occurs against our nation, our Armed Forces will target the center of the Zionist regime, and the power of our Armed Forces will not leave you at rest,” he added.
