(MENAFN) Iran’s President, Masoud Pezeshkian, issued a stern warning to Israel early Friday, vowing that the Islamic Republic would make the Jewish state “regret its foolish act” following Israel's military assault on Iran’s key facilities.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran's legitimate and powerful response will make the enemy regret its foolish act," Pezeshkian declared on social media platform X.

“We urge our people to trust their leaders and stand by them. The Iranian people and the officials will not remain silent in the face of this crime,” he asserted, signaling an unyielding resolve.

The President’s remarks followed a high-level Cabinet meeting, convened to address the ongoing crisis, which was reported by a local news outlet, Iran’s official news agency.

Israel’s "preemptive" airstrikes, which took place in the early hours of Friday, were aimed at crippling Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and military capabilities. The raids, according to sources, resulted in the deaths of several prominent Iranian commanders and nuclear scientists.

Earlier in the day, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei issued a chilling statement, warning that Israel "should anticipate a severe punishment" for its actions.
