Dubai: The Israeli military on Sunday issued a stark warning to Iranians, urging them to immediately evacuate all military weapons production facilities, in what is widely seen as a signal of impending new strikes.
The message was delivered via social media platform X by Israeli military spokesperson Colonel Avichay Adraee, and notably written in Farsi, directly addressing the Iranian public.
Colonel Adraee has previously used similar public warnings to foreshadow Israeli strikes in regions such as the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, and Yemen, amid ongoing hostilities with Hamas in Gaza.
The latest warning comes shortly after Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi indicated that Tehran would stop its attacks on Israel if Israel stopped its strikes. The exchange underscores the fragile and volatile state of tensions between the two regional powers, even as diplomatic signals emerge alongside military threats.
