Iran’s Ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, has outlined “three no’s” that he says defines Iran’s stance on the threat of war expansion into Lebanon and the region following the “recent staged event by the Zionist regime.”

“Our position on the threat of war expansion into Lebanon and the region is still defined by the ‘three no's’,” Amani said.

“First: We do not expect it – We consider the chances of such an escalation to be very slim due to the prevailing balance of power.”

“Second: We do not want it – The Islamic Republic of Iran continually seeks to reduce regional tensions.”

“Third: We are not afraid of it – Our enemies can only imagine what we are capable of with our strength, capability, and defense of the resistance.”

Yesterday, a rocket hit the town of Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights, which killed 12 children in a football field, and injured several others.

Hezbollah has categorically denied what it says are accusations by the enemy media that it carried out the attack.

“The Islamic Resistance has no involvement in the incident and strongly denies all false claims about it,” it said in a statement.

“Israel's” foreign ministry said that Hezbollah "crossed all red lines" with the rocket strike it blames on the Lebanese group.

"Saturday's massacre constitutes the crossing of all red lines by Hezbollah. This is not an army fighting another army, rather it is a terrorist organization deliberately shooting at civilians," the ministry said.

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said that they are raising “Israel’s” readiness for the next phase of fighting in North to the “next level” – adding that they have identified the rocket they claimed to be fired by Hezbollah at Madjal Shams.

"We know exactly where the rocket was launched from today," Halevi said in a visit to the site of the attack on Saturday.

"We examined the remains of the rocket on the soccer field wall, and we can say that it is a Falaq rocket with a warhead of 53 kilograms."

"We are significantly raising our readiness for the next phase of fighting in the North while simultaneously fighting in Gaza. We know how to strike very far from the State of Israel. When required, we will act strongly," he added.
