Iran’s Foreign Minister has vowed to attack Israel in response to its October strike “at the right time,” saying: “We have not given up our right to react to the Zionists.”

Israel launched an air attack on Iranian military targets on October 26, in response to Tehran firing around 200 ballistic missiles against Israel.

Seyyed Abbas Araghchi has said Israel’s strike deserves a reaction, “and we have not given up our right to react and we will react in our time and in the way we see fit,” according to the Iranian news outlet Young Journalists Club (YJC).

The foreign minister was answering questions from Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commanders about when Sadegh’s Promise 3 (Operation Honest Promise 3) would be carried out.
