“This is a blatant aggression. Full stop. The world needs your office to condemn it ‘unequivocally’ – no ambiguity, no justification, no letting the aggressor hide behind ‘twisted concepts’,” said Baqaei in a post on X.

“Your mandate demands it,” he added.

The IRGC chief commander cautioned that Israel would face consequences for its “conspiracies” in the region, emphasizing that Israel must realize that by creating insecurity, it cannot guarantee its own safety.

In response to the Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate, he said Iran would not leave any hostile actions unanswered, noting that “our brave men will punish Israel.”

Protestors issued a statement at the end of the rallies, saying Israel’s “desperate” moves “will definitely receive a tough and regret-inducing response” from Iran, according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
