Iran’s Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi says recent attacks on the Israeli embassies in Georgia and India arise from Tel Aviv’s poor popularity in the world.
“The Zionist regime [of Israel] has many enemies in various parts of the world and these incidents might have been carried out by different groups or individuals,” Brigadier General Vahidi said on Tuesday.
In New Delhi, an Israeli diplomat was injured when an embassy car exploded on Monday.
In Georgia, a bomb was discovered underneath the car of a Georgian national working for the Israeli Embassy in Tbilisi. The bomb was defused before it exploded.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Iran was behind the attacks, an accusation Tehran strongly rejected and considered as part of the regime’s psywar against the Islamic Republic.
“Israel cannot possibly enjoy popularity among the nations hurt by this regime’s acts,” the Iranian defense minister stated, stressing that the Zionist regime has the same problem across the globe.
Referring to the Israel’s accusations regarding the Israeli Embassy attack, Vahidi said Israel lacks the power and the courage to launch a military action against Iran.
He went on to say that Netanyahu has recently banned other Israeli officials from making war rhetoric against Iran, “because these remarks will be proved impossible after a while.”
“The Zionist regime has no image in the world, but is seeking to keep the hollow image, which it is trying to build for itself, from falling apart.”
