Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz commented on the Argentine Foreign Ministry's call to arrest Iranian Interior Minister Ahmad Vahidi, claiming that he was responsible for the attack on the Jewish community building in 1994, and wrote on his account on X: "He is a murderer and a terrorist. Thank you to President Milei and Foreign Minister Mondino for the request to issue an order for his arrest for the attack against the Jewish community (AMIA) - a request that strengthens the Jewish communities and the families of the victims and sends a clear message: The free world is determined to stop the Iranian terrorist regime and Khamenei.
Iran condemned as "illegal" Argentina's request for Interpol to arrest Iran's interior minister.
Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani "strongly condemned the repetition of illegal requests based on lies ... by some Argentine judges about Iranian nationals in the AMIA case," a statement from the ministry said.
All investigations have demonstrated Ahmad Vahidi's involvement in organizing the attack.

Any attack on Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would trigger a declaration of jihad, or holy war, the Iranian Students News Agency quoted Iran's national security parliamentary commission as saying on Tuesday.
Iran may lift its internet blackout in a few days, a senior parliament member said on Monday, after authorities shut communications while they used massive force to crush protests in the worst domestic unrest since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
