Iran has strongly condemned the terrorist crime committed by the Israeli regime against Yemen, warning of the growing threats posed by Israel’s expansionism and organized terrorism to international peace and security.
In a statement on Saturday night, the Foreign Ministry denounced the Israeli strike on Yemen that killed Ahmed Ghaleb Al-Rahawi, the prime minister of the country, along with several ministers.
The ministry called the attack a clear “war crime” and “crime against humanity,” urging the international community and Muslim nations to take serious action to curb Israel’s aggression.
The statement described the strike as a “brutal act of revenge” against a nation determined to fulfill its moral and humanitarian duty to support the oppressed people of Palestine.
It stressed that the killing of Yemeni officials would not weaken the resolve of the Yemeni nation to defend its dignity and stand by Palestine but would instead fuel growing anger across the Islamic world against Israel and its backers, particularly the United States.
Iran expressed condolences over the death of Yemeni leaders and civilians, underlining the UN’s responsibility to stop Israel’s warmongering and hold its leaders accountable.
The ministry warned that the UN Security Council’s continued inaction in the face of Israeli violations of international law undermines global norms and endangers regional and international security.
It also reiterated the need for prosecuting Israeli political and military leaders over war crimes in Gaza and Yemen.
