The Israeli regime, which has been disappointed over its failure in harming the resistance front and the failure of its attempts against Syria, seeks to whitewash its defeat through "cowardly attacks" on the besieged Gaza, Amir Abdollahian said.
The Israeli regime, however, has adopted a completely wrong strategy by making such a move, he added.
The Iranian deputy foreign minister said the resistance movement in Palestine will give a "crushing response" to Tel Aviv amid the deadly Israeli airstrikes on the blockaded Gaza Strip.
"The new players and the new atmosphere in the region will deprive the criminal Zionists of the opportunity for any aggression," Amir Abdollahian said on Wednesday.
On Wednesday, the Israeli military launched a series of new air and sea attacks against the Palestinians in the coastal territory.
The number of Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza reached 14 on Thursday, medical officials announced.
