Iran has recently concluded its largest-ever barrage of missiles fired at Israel, prompting warnings of potential further ballistic responses. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized during the Asia Cooperation Dialogue summit the need for Israel to understand that it cannot act with impunity. He stated that any military attack or terrorist act would be met with a decisive response from Iran's armed forces.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened with the country's security heads following the missile attacks, expressing concerns about the escalating tensions and the possibility of a broader regional conflict. The situation was further highlighted by Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani of Qatar, who labeled the ongoing violence in the Middle East as a 'collective genocide' perpetrated by Israel.
