ALWAGHT- Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s Foreign Minister, mocked Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s call for a limit on Iranian missile range, declaring that Netanyahu has miserably failed to meet his goals in the war against Iran.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for failing to deliver on his promises, describing his Gaza campaign as a military quagmire that has strengthened Hamas with 200,000 new recruits. Araghchi also highlighted Netanyahu’s unsuccessful attempts to undermine Iran’s nuclear achievements, noting that the Iranian academics targeted by Israeli-backed attacks have left behind many capable successors.
Araghchi accused Netanyahu of arrogance, saying that after failing in his war aims against Iran and suffering missile strikes on Israeli sites, he is now trying to influence US policy toward Iran. He dismissed Netanyahu’s demands as ridiculous and questioned the influence of Israeli intelligence on the White House.
Following Israeli and US military attacks on Iranian targets in June, Iran responded with a series of powerful missile strikes on Israeli and US military sites, including the al-Udeid air base in Qatar. The conflict subsided with a ceasefire that took effect on June 24, halting the fighting after intense exchanges.
