‘Stop the War Before It’s Too Late’

 Warning by Iran, Resistance Groups to Israel, U.S.

TEHRAN – Iran and resistance movements on Friday held the occupying regime of Israel and the U.S. responsible for the resumption of the Gaza war, warning of new genocide in the besieged Palestinian territory.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hussein Amir-Abdollahian said, “No solution exists other than open-ended ceasefire, extensive delivery of humanitarian aid and agreement on fresh exchange of prisoners.”
“POWs are not released with war but are instead killed in strikes,” he wrote in a post on X, former Twitter.
“Progress of the Washington and Tel Aviv war means new genocide in Gaza and West Bank. As if they are not thinking of the severe consequences of return to war,” the top diplomat stressed.
Warships and carriers do not decide the fate of the war but the “Palestinian willpower and dedication” will, he said, urging the Zionist regime and the United States to “stop the war on Gaza before it’s too late.”
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said the Zionist regime, the United States and their allies are liable for the atrocities being committed against Palestinians in the besieged territory.
“The political and legal responsibility for the prolongation of aggression and continued vicious massacre of Palestinians people not only rests with criminals of the Zionist regime, but also with the American administration and a few governments that support this apartheid regime,” he said.
“Violation of the truce and resumption of military aggression by the Zionist regime against Gaza came minutes before U.S. Secretary of State [Antony] Blinken departed the occupied territories. Once again, civilians, children and women are the main victims of the criminal attacks of Zionist military forces.”
Kanaani said the “bloodthirsty” Israeli authorities have unleashed a new orgy of killing under the continued support of the White House.
“Nations and the vast majority of world governments are crying out for the extension of the truce and complete cessation of the Zionist regime’s attacks against Gaza and the West Bank. This is while criminal and child-killing Zionists entertain the crude fantasy of reversing the irreparable defeat and emerging victorious through killing children and women,” he said.
Hamas said Washington openly greenlighted further Israeli attacks.
“The U.S. administration and President Biden bear full responsibility for the continuation of Israel war crimes in the Gaza Strip, after their absolute support for it, and the green light they once again granted following the visit of their Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, to the entity yesterday,” it said.
The resistance group said the occupation resumed the war after refusing to engage with all the offers for the release of other detainees.
“We hold the occupation responsible for the resumption of the war and aggression on Gaza. Negotiations were held all night for extending the ceasefire, during which the movement offered an exchange of prisoners and the elderly.
“However, the occupation refused to deal with all these offers, as it had already decided to resume its criminal aggression,” it said.
The resistance group said the Palestinian people and the resistance would thwart Israel’s plots and “break the will of the defeated occupation army.”
Separately, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said it holds the American administration fully responsible for the renewal of aggression.
The PFLP said the Palestinian people have no choice but to resist the Israeli aggression, stressing that the Israeli enemy will fail again in achieving any of its goals, no matter how many times it bombs Palestinians and commits massacres against them.
“The treacherous enemy will fail again and will return defeated, dragging the tails of disappointment and defeat,” it said.

“Certainly, the resistance will write the end of the political future of the war criminal Netanyahu and his gang.”
A senior Hezbollah official said Israel resumed its aggression on Gaza after the US decided to do so.
“This war from the beginning has been America’s war against the Palestinian people, and all American positions and the course of events were indicative that America is not just a partner but is the decision-maker on the matter,” Ali Damush, the vice chairman of the executive council of Hezbollah, said.
The resistance in Gaza and the entire region, he said, will not let the Zionists achieve their goals in this war and “will not allow the Americans and Israelis to have the upper hand in the region.”
