07-01-2026 11:20|Iran's military chief warned on Wednesday that Iran will not stand by and allow itself to be threatened by outside powers, after the United States and ‘Israel’ backed anti-government protests.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran considers the escalation of hostile rhetoric against the Iranian nation a threat and will not tolerate its continuation without responding," said General Amir Hatami, according to the Fars news agency.
In recent days, US President Donald Trump has threatened to intervene in Iran if demonstrators were killed, while ‘Israel's’ Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed support for the protests.
