Following an assault on a medical facility in Gaza, the Iranian foreign minister issued a stern warning to Israel in the midst of mounting concerns regarding the potential emergence of a global conflict, more commonly known as World War III.
Hossein Amir-Abdallohian disseminated the menacing correspondence on X, which was formerly identified as Twitter, subsequent to a missile assault on a medical facility in Gaza City, which tragically claimed a considerable number of lives.
Amir-Abdollahian tweeted:
“After the terrible crime of the Zionist regime in the bombing and massacre of more than 1,000 innocent women and children in the hospital, the time has come for the global unity of humanity against this fake regime more hated than ISIS and its killing machine.”
“Time is OVER!” he warned.
پس از جنایت هولناک رژیم صهیونیستی در بمباران و قتلعام بیش از هزار نفر از زنان و کودکان بیگناه در بیمارستان #المعمدانی زمان برای اتحاد جهانی بشریت علیه این رژیم جعلی منفورتر از داعش و ماشین کشتارش فرارسیده است.

Following this, the Iranian Embassy in Syria disseminated a tweet that featured the text “Time is up” in Arabic and Hebrew.

A few days after Mir-Abdollahian issued a cautionary statement concerning a regional coalition of armed groups referred to as the “axis of resistance,” the disconcerting communication was received. With respect to Israel’s continued military actions directed at civilians in Gaza, he declared that this coalition would open “multiple fronts” against the country.
His statement indicates that he expressed the opinion on Wednesday morning.
“The time has come for the global unity of humanity against this fake regime more hated than ISIS and its killing machine.”
The sentiment was also echoed on the page for the Iranian Embassy in Syria.
“Time is running out very fast,” Amir-Abdollahian said during a live televised interview with Iranian state television Monday.
“If the war crimes against the Palestinians are not immediately stopped, other multiple fronts will open, and this is inevitable.”
Hamas issued the warning in close proximity to the time it claimed that Israel was accountable for the fatalities of more than 500 people at the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital.
Israel has placed the blame for the attacks on the militant organization Palestinian Islamic Jihad, although it has refuted any involvement.
“An enemy rocket barrage was carried out towards Israel, which passed in the vicinity of the hospital when it was hit,” IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari said in a statement.
“According to intelligence information, from several sources we have, the GAP organization is responsible for the failed shooting that hit the hospital.”
But Iran swiftly denounced Israel for the attack, with foreign ministry spokesperson Nasser Kan’ani characterizing it as a “savage war crime” and an act of “genocide.”
He charged Israel with committing a “bestial and appalling crime” in a statement.
“The Zionist regime of Israel once again revealed its savagery and inhumanity to the world and proved that it has no slightest adherence to the principles and rules of international law during times of war.”
