Iran: Terror Regime Sustaining Genocidal Intent Amid Intensified Airstrikes in Gaza
The Iranian Foreign Ministry has issued a strong denunciation of Israel's recent airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, labeling the actions as a clear breach of international law and an ongoing series of genocidal operations targeting the Palestinian population.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, condemned the assaults that hit various regions across southern, central, and northern Gaza on Tuesday and Wednesday. The attacks included makeshift camps housing displaced Palestinians, eliciting strong denunciation from the Iranian official.
Reports indicate that the strikes have resulted in the deaths of at least 110 individuals, with injuries afflicting hundreds more, including a substantial number of children.
Baghaei asserted that the attacks, executed under the direct orders of Israel’s prime minister, signify “another clear indication of the regime’s aim to systematically exterminate Palestinians.”
According to an Iranian official, these actions amplify the international community’s obligations under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. The global community is urged to step in, stop the attacks, and ensure that those responsible are held accountable.
Baghaei condemned Israel for its extensive history of “serious breaches of legal and moral standards,” further noting that the continued assaults are occurring with the comprehensive backing of the United States.
He urged the guarantors of the ceasefire to meet their commitments and take decisive action to rein in Israel’s “aggressive actions and violations of human rights.”
