Iran says country will be a ‘graveyard’ for its enemies

Iran’s foreign ministry has vowed to defend the country as the war launched by Israel and the United States intensifies.

Speaking to reporters, Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Ismail Baghaei warned that Tehran would resist what he described as foreign aggression.

“We are ready to defend our homeland, and Iran will be a graveyard for our enemies.”

Baghaei said the objective of the “American-Zionist aggression” was to divide Iran, adding that the country’s population would defend its territory.

“The enemies should know that the Iranian people know how to defend their land.”

He added that Tehran’s focus remained on confronting the military campaign against it and warned that the conflict risked undermining international law.

“All international laws are now at risk because of what is happening in our country.”
