Iran's top foreign affairs official has dismissed the recent weapons launched against the country by neighboring Israel as insignificant, referring to them as 'toys.' Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian downplayed the Israeli strike during an interview, stating that the impact was minimal and not a cause for immediate retaliation.

Amir-Abdollahian expressed that unless there is further provocation by Israel, Iran does not intend to escalate the situation. He also cast doubt on the origin of the strike, suggesting that the Iranian regime is not entirely convinced it came from Israel.
