Iran's Foreign Ministry condemned last night's US strikes on the country's southern coast, accusing Washington of showing no credibility in its commitments. The ministry claimed the strikes violate the UN Charter and the first article of the bilateral memorandum of understanding.
Iran's Foreign Ministry issued a statement Sunday morning condemning overnight US strikes on the country's southern coast. The statement, cited by Israeli broadcaster N12, accused Washington of lacking credibility and value in its commitments. Tehran further claimed the strikes violate the UN Charter and Article 1 of the bilateral memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States.
As The Zioneer reported earlier this morning (07:54 Jerusalem), Iran's Foreign Ministry condemned a US strike on observation and intelligence sites in southern Iran. The new statement expands on that condemnation with a broader legal argument, asserting violations of international law and bilateral agreements.
The southern coast of Iran has been a recurring flashpoint in US-Iran tensions. The current statement follows weeks of escalating rhetoric from Tehran, which has accused the US of multiple violations since a ceasefire arrangement was reached between the two countries.
