Foreign ministry describes strike, which hit as a presenter was speaking, as a ‘wicked act’ and calls on United Nations to take action
Iran has condemned Israel’s attack on a state television building in Tehran as a “war crime”, and called on the UN to take action.
The strike on the offices of IRIB during a live broadcast was a “wicked act” and a “war crime”, said a foreign ministry spokesperson. “The UN [security council] must act now to stop the genocidal aggressor from committing further atrocities against our people.”
An Israeli attack hit the building as a presenter was speaking live, saying that the studio was filling with dust after “the sound of aggression against the homeland”.
Suddenly, the sound of an explosion could be heard, and the presenter hurried off-camera as dust and debris appeared in the studio.
