Iran's Raisi: Israel has 'crossed red lines' forcing others to act

Iran's Raisi: Israel has 'crossed red lines' forcing others to act

Tehran, 29 October 2023 (dpa/MIA) – Israel's military actions in the Gaza Strip have gone too far and will bring others into the conflict, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has warned.

"The crimes of the Zionist entity, humanitarian and military, have crossed the red lines that could force everyone to act," Raisi said in an interview with broadcaster al-Jazeera.

Raisi was reinforcing repeated warnings from Iran's political and military leadership directed at Israel and the United States since the October 7 attacks by Hamas.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has praised the perpetrators of the attacks, but denied direct Iranian involvement in their planning.
