Iran is preparing to “respond” to Israel, Ali Larijani, a senior adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, says in an interview published by Iran’s Tasnim news agency.
Without giving details, he says the Iranian response will aim to restore “deterrence.”
Iran has vowed to respond to Israeli strikes on its military sites on October 26, which came after Tehran launched some 200 ballistic missiles at Israel on October 1, sending most of the population rushing to bomb shelters and safe rooms. The assault on Israel caused relatively minor damage to military bases and some residential areas and killed a Palestinian man in the West Bank.
During the interview, Larijani also dismisses Israeli claims of having significantly depleted Hezbollah’s arms supplies during operations against the Iran-backed terror group in Lebanon, quipping, “So where are the weapons coming from? Mars?”
The interview, which follows Larijani’s visit to Lebanon and Syria, was conducted on Wednesday.
