Iran Press/Iran news: "Israeli regime’s presence in the Persian Gulf will be deemed as a clear threat to the security, sovereignty, and integrity of Iran and the Persian Gulf's security," Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Seyyed Abbas Mousavi said on Friday.
"Should Israel, join this coalition, Iran will reserve the right to defend itself and tackle such threat within its defensive doctrine," he added reacting to the regime’s announcement that it would join the US’ so-called maritime coalition in the Persian Gulf.
According to Iran Press, the spokesman warned that the responsibility for all the consequences of such a move will fall upon the US and Israel.
Earlier this week, Israeli Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz said the regime is going to cooperate with the US coalition in the Persian Gulf.
