Iran-Israel Conflict: Pakistan Denies Iran's Claim of Nuclear Retaliation 🇵🇰💣
Iran Claims Pakistan Will Strike Israel⚡
Amid the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel, Mohsen Rezaei — a senior Iranian military commander and member of Iran's National Security Council — has asserted that Pakistan has promised to retaliate with a nuclear strike if Israel uses nuclear weapons against Iran.
“Pakistan has assured us that if Israel uses a nuclear bomb on Iran, they will attack Israel with a nuclear bomb,” Rezaei claimed during an interview on Iranian state television.
Pakistan Strongly Rejects the Claim❌
Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, swiftly dismissed this assertion on X (formerly Twitter):
“Our nuclear capability is for the benefit of our people and the defence of our country against the hostile designs of our enemies. We do not pursue hegemonic policies against our neighbours which are being amply demonstrated by Israel these days.”
Escalating Tensions: Missile Strikes and Retaliation💥
Hostilities between Iran and Israel have intensified dramatically. Over the weekend, Israel conducted a massive aerial assault, which led Iran to retaliate with waves of drones and ballistic missiles. Explosions lit up the night skies over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem as both sides traded blows.
On Monday, the Israeli military announced it had destroyed about one-third of Iran's surface-to-surface missile launchers.
“More than 50 fighter jets and aircraft carried out strikes and destroyed over 120 surface-to-surface missile launchers. This amounts to one-third of the missile launchers owned by the Iranian regime,” said Brigadier General Effie Defrin.
Despite these attacks, Israeli officials insisted they do not plan to harm the civilian population of Tehran.
Ayatollah Khamenei ‘Not Off Limits’🎯
Adding to the tension, a senior Israeli official told The Wall Street Journal that assassinating Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is “not off limits” — highlighting how dangerously close the confrontation could get.
Pakistan Calls for Muslim Unity🤝
Speaking in Pakistan’s National Assembly on June 14, Defence Minister Khawaja Asif urged Muslim nations to unite in response to Israel’s actions.
“Israel has targeted Iran, Yemen, and Palestine. If Muslim nations don’t unite now, each will face the same fate,” he warned.
He also called for Muslim-majority countries with diplomatic ties to Israel to sever them immediately and urged the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to hold an emergency meeting to develop a joint response.
The World Watches Closely🌍
As Iran and Israel exchange threats and strikes, and regional players voice their positions, the international community remains on high alert for further escalation in the Middle East.
