An Iranian hardline cleric has warned US that his country will attack all Washington allies in Middle East including Israel if US targets Tehran, Iranian local media reported.
Ahmad Khatemi was addressing Iranian crowds on Wednesday among the Muslim holiday prayers. Khatemi has previously rejected the Washington-Tehran negotiation requested by US president Donald Trump.
“Americans say you should accept all we say. This is not negotiation then, but dictatorship,” the hardline cleric declared.
Tension between the United States and Iran escalated after Tramp left the Iran nuclear deal.
