Iran minister threatens to 'school' Israel if US fails to enforce MoU

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi issued a stark warning to Israel, threatening to "school" the nation if it defies the terms of a recently signed US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding. Araghchi posted his threat on X/Twitter on Wednesday, stating that Iran would act if the US did not fulfill its commitment to "muzzling its pets in Tel Aviv."

the terms of the Islamabad MoU are crystal clear and public for all to see

The minister's statement was a direct response to Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz's assertion during a closed military briefing that Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei had been "marked for death." Katz, however, also clarified that Israel had no immediate plans to strike Khamenei, acknowledging that such an action would jeopardize the MoU and ongoing US-Iran negotiations.

If they ignore their master, Iran will school them

Katz also used the briefing to reiterate Israel's firm stance against Iran developing nuclear weapons. Araghchi, referencing the "Islamabad MoU," claimed that US President Donald Trump had agreed to "muzzle" Israel as part of the agreement. He further warned that any threats against Iranian leadership would result in an "immediate, powerful response."

The first term of the 14-point MoU reportedly mandates that all US and Iranian allies cease military operations related to specific operations, including "Operation Epic Fury" by the US and "Operation Roaring Lion" by Israel. It also prohibits initiating war or using force against each other.
