Iran threatened to intervene if Israel carries out its planned ground invasion of Gaza, Axios reports.
In a meeting with UN envoy to the Middle East Tor Wennesland, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian claimed The Islamic Republic does not want to see the war in Gaza escalate to a regional conflict but his country would get involved should the Jewish state launch a ground offensive in Gaza.
It is unclear if Iran would get involved directly or via its many proxies in the region, including Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based terrorist group it backs.
The Iranian FM also said Israel would suffer "a huge earthquake," if the country does not stop its attacks on Gaza, The Times of Israel reports.
US President Joe Biden has sought to discourage other actors from joining the war against Israel, saying "[to]anyone thinking of taking advantage of this situation, I have one word: Don't."
Iran reportedly collaborated with Hamas on the deadly attack on Israel, the worst the country has seen in 50 years, a year before it was executed.

Thankfully there a two American aircraft carriers there. Opportune time to hit Iran's nuclear facilities with some bunker bombs
