Tehran resident says stands ‘behind the country’

Описание: A Tehran resident says he stands behind his country after Israel and Iran exchanged fire for the first time since an April ceasefire.

“It must continue until the Zionist-American enemy is put in its place," says Arash Arefkhani, he “stood behind the country, with whatever confidence and belief … Whatever is in the interest of the country’s economy and the country’s security must be done.”

Iran fired missiles at Israel on Sunday in retaliation for Israeli strikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs. Israel responded by striking several locations in Iran, including a petrochemical company in the country’s southwest.
