Iran military adviser says war continues until compensation, sanctions lifted

A senior military adviser to Iran’s leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, said the war will continue until Tehran receives full compensation and sanctions are lifted.

Mohsen Rezaei said Iran would keep fighting until “all economic sanctions are lifted, and legally binding international guarantees are obtained” to prevent future US interference.

“We see that our armed forces are carrying out operations and activities with strength,” Rezaei said, adding that leadership remained firmly in control.

He also claimed the United States had been ready to pursue a ceasefire earlier, but that Israel pushed for the war to continue.
