Iran warns Middle East will ‘go out of control’ if Israel continues Gaza war

Al-Arabia – Iran’s top diplomat warned Israel and the US on Sunday that if Israel does not stop its attacks on Gaza, the Middle East “will go out of control.”

“I warn the US and its proxy (Israel) … that if they do not immediately stop the crime against humanity and genocide in Gaza, anything is possible at any moment and the region will go out of control,” Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said during a joint press conference in Tehran with his South African counterpart.

Amir-Abdollahian likened the current state of the region to a metaphorical powder keg, saying any “miscalculation” in the ongoing conflict could result in “heavy and bitter consequences for the interests of the warmongers.”
