Iranian IRGC general Mohsen Rezaei told state television on June 15 that Pakistan had assured Iran it would retaliate with a nuclear strike on Israel if Israel nuked Tehran. Rezaei said Islamabad “would also attack it with nuclear weapons”. He reiterated that Iran has undisclosed tactics and capabilities. Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khwaja Asif, speaking June 14, urged collective Muslim action and said Pakistan “stands behind Iran” at international forums. So far, no official Pakistani spokesperson has confirmed the nuclear threat. The statement follows Israel’s recent missile and drone strikes targeting Iran’s nuclear program, intensifying regional tensions .
