Iran sent a warning message Israel through U.N. (United Nations) to take a position on the military operation that the Israelis are preparing against the Palestinian group Hamas at Gaza Strip. “We must intervene in the war if the Israel Defense Forces’ operation in Gaza continues,” said the message sent to Israel’s National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi on Saturday the 14th. The warning came as Israel tightened its military siege of the region, a week after the attack staged by the terrorist group that sparked war in the region. According to a statement from the Israeli army, the country is preparing a largescale offensive “on land, sea and air” with the aim of reaching “the heart of Gaza.” The land incursion began when the Palestinians complied with Israel’s ultimatum for 1.1 million people to leave the northern part of the region within 24 hours the deadline was this Friday 13th at 6 p.m. (Brasília time) and was extended until the morning of this Saturday the 14th, the operation was small and aimed at searching for Hamas hostages, but significant in the context of the war that has already caused at least 3,500 deaths between Israelis and Palestinians.
