He also said it would result in "hell" for the whole region. Iran cancelled nuclear talks with the US last Sunday, saying they needed to respond to Israel’s attack on Friday. Since then, the two countries have continued to exchange fire. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long warned that Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons – Tehran has insisted its nuclear programme is peaceful.
