"Iran's aerial operations against Israel could last three to four days," said Ahmad Bakhshayesh Ardestani, a member of the Iranian Parliament's National Security Commission, Iran International reported on Saturday night, citing an interview published by 'Iran Watch.'
Ardestani reportedly told Iran Watch that Iran "is certainly prepared for the consequences of such an attack and will be ready for any subsequent developments." He added that the Iranian response would "be carried out by surprise and may even last three to four days."
He told the interviewer that "bloodshed would be carried out" to avenge Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, who was killed in Tehran while attending the inauguration of new Iranian president Pezeshkian.
"Therefore, Iran's response to this crime of the Zionist regime will be definitive and there is no doubt about it."
Ardestani also told Iran Watch that prolonging the response, or making Israel wait for the response, was in Iran's favor as Israel "feels every night that it is in limbo, and keeping Israel in limbo is part of the revenge operation."
"Adopting a policy of patience and waiting is part of the revenge process of the Islamic Republic."
