Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has publicly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling him a 'serpent' and accusing him of deceiving the United States into a war with Iran. Araghchi made these remarks in a post on X, citing Netanyahu's alleged statements in Hebrew about influencing the U.S. administration. The conflict between Iran and the U.S. began on February 28 with strikes that killed Iran's supreme leader, leading to retaliatory attacks. An April ceasefire reduced fighting, but sporadic attacks near the Strait of Hormuz continue to threaten peace prospects.
