The initial strike on Israel was a warning, according to Hossein Amir-Abdullahi, Iran’s foreign minister.

Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Israel’s economic ports might be targets of an Iranian attack, according to Amir-Abdullahi.
While attending Friday’s United Nations Security Council meeting in New York City, he chatted with Tom Llamas of NBC News.

Iran will not react, according to Amir-Abdullahi, unless Israel launches a major attack.
We might have attacked Tel Aviv and Haifa, he stated.

We could have gone for all of Israel’s commercial ports as well.
However, civilians were our boundary.
We were solely acting for military purposes.
We will not respond in a different way if Israel does not undertake any fresh adventures in violation of our interests.
We will know for sure if Israel acts decisively against my country.
“We will respond immediately and to the fullest extent possible; they will regret it.”
The weapons used to attack his country, he said, were like toys for kids.
Israel is reportedly launching a retaliation strike on Iran, which is why Amir-abdollahian is making this statement.
In retaliation for the April 1 bombing in Damascus, Syria, which killed some of its generals, Iran launched a missile and drone bombardment at Israel last weekend.
Israel was reportedly behind the latest attack on Iran, but the Iranian foreign minister refused to accept the accusation.
Last night’s events did not constitute a strike.
He said that the helicopters weren’t really drones but rather toys for his kids.
