Iraq recalls ambassador from Tehran, summons Iran’s chargé d’affaires over Erbil strikes | Oneindia
Iraq has taken a strong diplomatic stance by recalling its ambassador from Tehran for consultations and summoning Iran’s chargé d’affaires in Baghdad.
This move comes in protest against Iranian strikes on northern Iraq, resulting in the unfortunate death of several civilians overnight.
The Iraqi Foreign Ministry condemned the Iranian attack as a "blatant violation of the sovereignty of the Republic of Iraq." It emphasised that such actions contradict the principles of good neighbourliness, breach international law, and pose a threat to the security of the region.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives.

In a provocative and chilling statement, Iran has called for the execution of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, escalating tensions between Tehran and Tel Aviv. The Iranian government has urged its Arab allies to take action in support of this call, sending shockwaves through Israel and further stoking fears of regional instability. The statement follows a series of heightened exchanges between Israel and Iran, with both nations engaged in a bitter conflict, especially in light of Israel’s ongoing military operations in Gaza. Tehran has also criticized international bodies, accusing them of failing to adequately address Israel’s actions and calling for greater cooperation among pro-Palestinian countries to seek justice. With the backdrop of mounting casualties and a looming humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Iran’s call for Netanyahu’s death has added a new, dangerous dimension to the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict.

In a shocking turn of events, HTS (Hayat Tahrir al-Sham) leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani issued a chilling message targeting Iran, Israel, and the United States, signaling the possibility of all-out war if specific actions are taken. In his statement, Jolani warned of escalating violence and direct conflict if Israel continues its military operations in Syria and if the U.S. maintains its support for Syrian Kurdish forces.

Iran has condemned Israel's escalating military actions in Syria, calling Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent moves "aggressive" and a violation of international law. The statement follows Israel's seizure of key Syrian towns and multiple airstrikes targeting the region. Tehran criticized these actions as part of an expansionist agenda, accusing Israel of exacerbating tensions in the already fragile Middle East. The strikes come amid reports of growing instability in Syria after the recent fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime, raising concerns over regional security and potential escalations.

Iran has issued its strongest warning yet to Israel following last month’s airstrikes on Iranian territory. Major General Mohammad Baqeri, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, declared that Tehran's retaliation would be “crushing” and “beyond the imagination” of the Israeli regime’s leaders. Speaking on Tuesday, Baqeri revealed that Iran had already carried out two “different” operations against Israel and that the upcoming response would surpass all expectations.

In a recent warning, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that the threat posed by armed groups like Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (H.T.S.) in Syria is not confined to the country, but will soon spread to neighboring regions, including Iraq, Jordan, and Turkey. Araghchi's comments were made during a joint press conference with Iraqi and Syrian officials in Baghdad, as he emphasized the growing danger of these extremist groups. The Iranian FM highlighted that the region must unite to combat the spread of terrorism before it becomes a greater threat to all neighboring countries. This raises questions about the potential for H.T.S. to expand their influence in the Middle East and the steps that Iraq, Jordan, and Turkey must take to safeguard their security.
