Iran attack on millitary infrastructures in Israel was based on the inherent right of self-defense: Iraj Elahi, Ambassador of Iran to India

Iraj Elahi, Ambassador of Iran to India legitimising his country attack on Israel says, “The Iranian legal and legitimate response in targeting Israeli military infrastructures last night was based on the inherent right of self-defense and in response to the Zionist regime’s military attack in targeting the Iranian embassy. We hope that the Zionist Regime has learned a lesson. No doubt if it repeats its evil and terrorist actions again, it will face a decisive response from Iran. The responsibility for escalating the situation lies with Israel. The Islamic Republic of Iran has stated many times in its official positions and diplomatic interactions within the framework of principles that it does not want to develop conflicts in the region and has proven this position in practice through restraint.”

Iraj Elahi also says, “As you know the illegitimate and terrorist regime of Israel does not adhere to any international law, or moral and humanitarian principles. This terrorist regime has never stopped its enmity and malice against the Islamic Republic of Iran and recently attacked the consular section of Iran’s embassy in Syria which led to the martyrdom of a number of Iranian officials. Iran has declared that seriously defends its security and national interests and has no tolerance in this regard.”
