Iran has told Israel through the UN that it will intervene if the country’s operations against Hamas in Gaza continue, a report has claimed.

Israel has warned 1.1 million people living in the north of the enclave to evacuate ahead of an expected ground operation in Gaza with the IDF planning to strike the territory from land, sea and air.

Iran’s involvement could be through a militant group from Syria or by backing Hezbollah to join the conflict, diplomatic sources told Axios.

Meanwhile, Iran’s foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said that Israel’s operations could cause fighting to expand to other areas of the Middle East which would cause Israel to suffer “a huge earthquake”, reported the Associated Press.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Israel has warned 1.1 million people living in the north of the enclave to evacuate ahead of an expected ground operation in Gaza with the IDF planning to strike the territory from land, sea and air.

    Iran’s involvement could be through a militant group from Syria or by backing Hezbollah to join the conflict, diplomatic sources told Axios.

    Mr Amirabdollahian said that he would be contacting UN officials in the region as “there is still an opportunity to work on an initiative (to end the war) but it might be too late tomorrow.”

    More than 2,000 people have been killed in Hamas-controlled Gaza since Israel launched retaliatory airstrikes, the Palestinian health ministry said on Saturday.

    Following the Hamas attacks, Israel announced a “complete siege” on the enclave and tens of thousands have now left their homes in Gaza to get away from the combat zone.

    And on Saturday Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu told troops in southern Israel that “The next stage is coming”

      I think if Iran steps in with feet on the ground, the US probably will too, unfortunately.

      Fucking Nicky Hailey is foaming at the mouth for it to happen.

      The Palestinians are in the same position as Ukraine, if not further down. Ukraine has been lucky to have Western support, the other path was to end up like Palestine.

          Only if you assume Iran is an infallible moral authority and not an authoritarian regime working to further it’s own interests. I am not defending Iran but I’ll be damned if I’ll let people who are being oppressed shit on other people being oppressed.

        when did Ukraine supported and voted for a degenerated terror militia that wants to eradicate the Jews? I must have missed that…

          Do you not know how analogies work? No analogy is perfect.

          For example, Russia hasn’t been an occupying force in Ukraine for 60+ years. Russia hasn’t been actively genociding (yes, this is genocide, read the UN Convention on Genocide) Ukrainians on their own land for 60+ years.

          Did you miss that part too?

              In your previous comment you implied that Palestine voted for a terror militia to eradicate the Jews. Essentially piling all of the responsibility on top of the Palestinian people. I shared that link to show that Israel shoulders some of the blame as well.

              People defending Israel are starting to sound like a broken record “dO yOu cOnDOne ThE aTTaCKs?” Come on dude, very few people actually support the mass slaughter of civilians, and it still doesn’t absolve Israel of their behavior.

                I don’t give Israel absolution at all…all involved parties in this conflict have fucked up big time. This conflict is way to complicated that a dipshit like me can come up with a solution. I just don’t like those whole Palestine good, Israel bad and vice versa simple mindset.

                At a very cynical day I would say let them kill each other off and give the land to all the refugees from around the world. This conflict is one of the most, if not the most degenerate one…

    And this can easily lead to more wars in the Middle East. Once more, innocent will die, and soldiers will not return home because stupid bloodlusting leaders of Israel, Iran, and Hamas just can’t get enough blood.

        Not really at the moment, given how the critical conflicts right now seem to be Israel vs Hamas and Ukraine vs Russia. Western arms companies are in the rare situation where they are on the more good side right now.

      For real. This is so blatantly a play by Iran to drive a wedge between Israel and the Islamic nations it has recently been normalizing relations with - UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco… They were in talks with Saudi Arabia, and that would have been a bridge too far.
