Israel’s CHILLING Warning After Iran REFUSES to Drop Nukes | Trump Threatens to Strike AGAIN

Hours after Iranian FM Araghchi reaffirmed Iran’s refusal to abandon nuclear enrichment, the IDF issued a sharp warning, vowing the campaign against Iran “isn’t over.” Israel signaled continued military readiness, citing multi-front operations against Hezbollah and Iranian targets. Araghchi called the nuclear program a national achievement, while acknowledging U.S. B-2 bomber strikes caused severe damage.
