A sensational claim has come to light amid growing tension between Israel and Iran. Mohson Razai, a senior military commander of Iran and a member of the National Security Council, has said that if Israel drops a atomic bomb on Tehran, Pakistan will do a nuclear attack on Israel. This statement was made on Iranian government television, which has further enhanced regional tension.
On Friday, Israel carried out a large -scale air strikes on Iran’s military and nuclear bases, killing several senior military officers and six nuclear scientists. In response, Iran carried out missiles and drone attacks on Israel, killing 13 people and injuring more than 370. Iran claims that its nuclear program is peaceful, but Israel considers it a threat to its safety.
Razai said, “Pakistan has assured us that if Israel makes a nuclear attack on Iran, they will respond with a atomic bomb on Israel.” He also appealed to Muslim countries to unite. However, Pakistan Defense Minister Khwaja Muhammad Asif dismissed the claim that Islamabad did not make any such promise. Asif described Israel’s undeclared nuclear arsenal as the cause of regional instability in the post on X.
Pakistan has always supported Iran and has advocated Muslim unity against Israel. Relations have improved after the missile exchange between the two countries in January 2024. The statement of the RJE has increased the possibility of a widespread war in the region, especially when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to destroy the Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile program.
The statement came at a time when US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that “unprecedented” will be given if US interests were attacked. The global community is monitoring this growing struggle, which can pose a threat to regional and global stability.
