{"content":"Israel’s Defence Minister Katz threatened on Monday that the residents of Tehran will “pay the price and soon” Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz threatened on Monday that the residents of Tehran will “pay the price and soon” after Iranian missiles struck Tel Aviv and the port city of Haifa before dawn, killing at least five people. The latest military exchange between the arch-rivals began when Israel struck Iran’s nuclear and military sites on Friday, killing top commanders and scientists. Tel Aviv has said it wants to stop Tehran from building an atomic weapon, which the latter has consistently denied, saying its uranium enrichment programme is for civilian purposes. “The residents of Tehran will pay the price, and soon,” Katz wrote on X, as the missile exchange continued for a fourth day, fuelling concerns among world leaders at this week’s G7 meeting that the battle between the two old enemies could lead to a broader regional conflict.","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025062025/06/16/e00948d6c55241b3a9e3dbd57776e5f4.png"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":[],"quotearticleid":0}
