New Delhi: The long-standing hostility between Iran and Israel has escalated dramatically, with both nations launching missile and drone attacks against one another in recent days. Amid this intensifying conflict, a shocking claim has emerged from Tehran — one that could have significant implications for regional and global security.
A top Iranian general has publicly alleged that Pakistan may use nuclear weapons against Israel if Iran is attacked with nuclear force. The assertion, which has sparked global concern and diplomatic speculation, was made by Mohsen Rezai, a senior figure in Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and a member of the country’s National Security Council.
Iran’s Nuclear Warning
Appearing on a television program, General Mohsen Rezai warned Israel of dire consequences if it escalates the conflict to the level of a nuclear confrontation. Referring to alleged conversations with Pakistani authorities, Rezai claimed, “If Israel ever uses a nuclear weapon against Iran, Pakistan has told us they would respond with a nuclear strike on Israel.”
The remarks, reportedly aired on Iranian state TV and cited by international outlet Turkiye Today, have drawn sharp reactions globally, though no official diplomatic channels have confirmed the claim.
No Official Word from Pakistan
As of now, Pakistan has neither confirmed nor denied the Iranian general’s statement. While Islamabad has previously called for Muslim unity and expressed solidarity with Iran amid its confrontation with Israel, there is no official record or announcement of any nuclear pact or retaliatory agreement between Pakistan and Iran.
In recent years, Pakistan has consistently reiterated its position as a responsible nuclear power and has maintained a policy of minimum credible deterrence, particularly in relation to its tensions with India. Any indication of Pakistan’s involvement in a broader Middle East conflict — especially involving nuclear weapons — would mark a serious departure from its traditional foreign policy stance.
Diplomatic and Security Implications
The claim made by General Rezai has not only intensified regional anxiety but also caught the attention of global powers concerned about nuclear proliferation and conflict escalation in the Middle East.
Experts warn that even unverified statements of this nature can significantly raise tensions and prompt strategic recalculations by countries across the region, including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the United States. Israel, which maintains a policy of ambiguity regarding its nuclear arsenal, has yet to respond to the Iranian general’s comments.
What Happens Next?
As the Iran-Israel conflict continues to heat up, international observers are closely watching for official statements from both Islamabad and Tel Aviv. The absence of any formal confirmation or denial from Pakistan keeps the region in a delicate state of uncertainty.
Global organizations such as the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) are likely to increase their scrutiny and may call for urgent dialogue to prevent further escalation.
For now, the world waits — as a dangerous war of words adds a nuclear dimension to an already volatile confrontation in the Middle East.
