Austin claimed that the US is trying to persuade Iran and Israel to de-escalate

According to RCO News Agency, US Defense Minister Lloyd Austin mentioned on Monday, in the presence of journalists, about the possible military response of the Zionist regime to Iran’s “Vada Sadeq 2” operation: saying exactly what form Israel’s attack on Iran will take. It will be difficult.

Iran, on October 10 (October 1st), during the operation “Sadegh 2” to the aggressive and terrorist actions of the Zionist regime in the assassination and martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, the former head of the political office of Hamas in Tehran, which Iran considered a violation of Iran’s national sovereignty and cross-border terrorism. He responded by assassinating and martyring Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, the former Secretary General of Hezbollah in Lebanon, and General Abbas Nilfroushan, Iran’s senior military adviser in Lebanon, during the attacks on the south of this country.

Iranian officials have emphasized that in case of any other aggressive action by the Zionist regime and its allies against Iran, the infrastructure of this regime and the interests of its allies in the region will be the legitimate target of Iran’s military attacks.

The Guardian newspaper reported that Austin said: “We are doing everything we can to reduce tensions and we hope to encourage both sides to de-escalate.” So, we have to see what happens.

However, Austin, whose country has fully supported the war crimes of the Zionist regime since the beginning of the Gaza war, which has undermined peace and stability in the region, said that the US military has sent the THAAD anti-missile system to the occupied territories and they are now in place. .

THAAD, or the high altitude defense system, is an important part of the layered air defense systems of the US Army and adds to the anti-missile defense of the Zionist regime.

He refused to say whether it is operational, but added: We have the ability to put it into operation very quickly.

US President Joe Biden had previously said that the deployment of Todd, along with about 100 American soldiers, would be to help the Zionist army.

The United States also provided intelligence and military assistance to the Zionist regime in intercepting Iranian missiles and drones in the operation “Honest Promise” which was carried out on April 13 (April 25) in response to the aggressive attack of the Zionist regime on the consulate building of the Iranian embassy in Damascus.
