Iranian Parliament Speaker Qalibaf criticized Israeli Defense Minister Katz's remarks as "nonsense" on social media on the 24th (local time). Speaker Qalibaf stated, "The reason they are angry and that criminal minister is talking nonsense is because we are united around our leadership, and this has completely thwarted their conspiracy." Previously, on the 23rd, Minister Katz stated in a video statement that Israel is ready to resume military operations against Iran, claiming that it is awaiting US approval and is prepared to deliver "destructive blows" to Iran's "most vulnerable points" to completely eliminate the Iranian regime.
