Tehran reserves right to respond to Israeli attacks

Tehran reserves the right to react to last month's air strikes on Iran, but it also considers other developments in the region such as the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Wednesday in Lisbon.

He told reporters Iran welcomed Tuesday's agreement and hoped it could lead to a permanent ceasefire.

Israel struck targets in Iran on 26 October in retaliation for Iran's 1 October missile barrage against Israel.
