'The aggressive Zionist regime, through its repeated violations of the ceasefire, has continuously escalated its acts of aggression against the oppressed people of Lebanon. These actions have been carried out with the green light and support of the criminal United States and amid the silence of international bodies. By employing prohibited weapons, including phosphorus munitions, the regime has committed war crimes. Despite previous warnings issued by the Islamic Republic of Iran, the child-killing Zionist regime has crossed all red lines and, by intensifying its attacks in southern Lebanon, has targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut (Dahiyeh),' the Embassy wrote on X.

The post further added, 'We had previously warned that if the crimes committed in Dahiyeh were expanded, we would strike targets within the occupied territories. The Zionist military must immediately cease its attacks against southern Lebanon and Dahiyeh. Should it expand its aggression in that area or respond to Iran's action, it will face even more forceful and regret-inducing blows. In such a case, devastating operations will be launched against the regime and its supporters.'

In another post, the embassy of South Africa added, 'We warned that repeated violations of the ceasefire would not go unanswered. Tonight's operation was a warning. Do not repeat your acts of aggression.'

'USA and Israel only understand the language of power,' post further added on X.
