Iran’s Araghchi accuses ‘serpent’ Netanyahu of tricking US into war

On Monday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi publicly characterized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “serpent.” Araghchi alleged that Netanyahu has intentionally manipulated the United States into pursuing a war against the Islamic Republic on Israel's behalf.

The Foreign Minister further claimed that Netanyahu has openly boasted in Hebrew about successfully deceiving the U.S. administration into engaging in this conflict. These statements represent a significant escalation in rhetoric from Tehran regarding the diplomatic and military relationship between Washington and Tel Aviv.
