The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Abuja has urged the United Nations, governments and the international community to speak out against what it described as continued US military attacks on Iran and the killing of civilians.
The embassy made the call in a press statement on Friday, following what it described as US attacks on August 30 and renewed attacks on September 1 in several parts of Iran.
The embassy said the attacks were a violation of Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, describing them as “a blatant act of military aggression by a foreign power against an independent state.”
