Following Israeli airstrikes on Beirut's southern suburbs, Iranian officials have issued strong warnings of a 'decisive and painful' response. Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament’s Foreign Policy and National Security Committee, emphasized that Iran would retaliate against the 'Zionist regime' and suggested that U.S. military assets in the region could also be targeted. The Israeli strikes, which hit two residential buildings in a Hezbollah stronghold, resulted in two fatalities and at least 11 injuries. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office stated the operation was a response to rocket fire from Hezbollah, although the group did not claim responsibility for the attacks. The situation has escalated tensions in the region, with Iranian officials condemning both Israel and the U.S. for violating ceasefire agreements. The ongoing conflict, which began on March 2, has already led to over 3,600 deaths in Lebanon, raising concerns about a potential wider regional conflict involving Iran and Hezbollah.
