“Earlier Tuesday evening, we exercised self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter, targeting solely military & security sites in charge of genocide in Gaza and Lebanon.
We did so after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give room for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Our action is concluded unless the Israeli regime decides to invite further retaliation. In that scenario, our response will be stronger and more powerful.
Israel’s enablers now have a heightened responsibility to rein in the warmongers in Tel Aviv instead of partaking in their folly,” Araqchi added.
He called on the United Nations Security Council to take meaningful action to prevent threats against regional peace and security.
