NEWS CENTER - Iran's Permanent Mission to the United Nations asked the United Nations Security Council to convene urgently against Israel's attacks.

 

Iran's Permanent Mission to the United Nations (UN), condemning Israel's coordinated attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities and civilian infrastructure, sent a letter to the UN Security Council and asked for an emergency meeting.

 

It was reported that Israel's recent attacks are a clear violation of the UN Charter and contrary to the basic principles of international law, posing a serious threat to regional and global peace. While emphasising that the targeting of inspected nuclear facilities such as Natanz could lead to a radiological disaster, it was stated that these attacks also undermine the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Regime (NPT) and the IAEA's mission.

 

The letter described the attacks on senior military and nuclear scientists in Tehran as "state-sponsored terrorism", and Israel's claim of responsibility for these attacks was openly considered as an international confession of guilt.

 

It was reported that Iran reserves the right to self-defence in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter and that a proportionate, deterrent and decisive response will be given to the attacks.

 

The letter called on the Security Council and the UN Secretary-General to take urgent and binding steps and hold Israel accountable.
