Iran warns of “harsh” response if Israel continues “malice” in Lebanon

TEHRAN, June 16 — Iran warned Tuesday that if Israel does not end its “malice” in southern Lebanon, it will have to wait for the Iranian armed forces’ “harsh” response.

In an official statement, Iran’s main military command, Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said that since U.S. President Donald Trump announced the end of the war, the Israeli army has violated the ceasefire in southern Lebanon 84 times, and is still continuing its “crimes against and killing of the oppressed Lebanese people.”
