Will wage intense war if terms not accepted by US, says Iran official

Mohammad Hossein Ziyaeenia, the Deputy to the Representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Supreme Leader in India, on Wednesday said his country would wage intense war in case their terms are not accepted by the US and its partners.

This comes amid the two-week ceasefire announced by the US and Iran.

On Wednesday, Ziyaeenia arrived at the Golden Temple to extend an invite to Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) president Harjinder Singh Dhami to participate on the 40th day of mourning after the martyrdom of Ayatullah Sayyid Ali Hussaini Khamenei at the Iran Culture House in New Delhi on April 12.

He told reporters that Iran suffered an extensive economic and human loss in the war, which “was not of their choosing”.

He handed over the invite to SGPC officials at the information office as Dhami was not available.
