TEHRAN \u2013 Iran\u2019s Ambassador to the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani, has sharply criticized Israel, calling it the primary threat to global peace and security.<\/p>\n
He condemned the Israeli regime\u2019s use of unfounded allegations against Iran to cover up its own destructive actions in the region. \u00a0<\/p>\n
In a letter addressed to the UN Security Council President, Iravani responded to Israeli President Isaac Herzog\u2019s remarks, in which Herzog labeled Iran as a threat, particularly to the US and Israel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Iravani condemned Herzog’s \u201cunfounded and provocative accusations\u201d made during a special session of the UN General Assembly on Monday. He rejected these claims, emphasizing that they serve only to distract from Israel’s \u201chorrific crimes\u201d against Palestinians in Gaza.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThese baseless allegations are part of an ongoing campaign to obscure Israel\u2019s blatant violations of international law and its harmful activities toward regional countries,\u201d the letter stated. It was also sent to the UN Secretary-General and the President of the General Assembly.<\/p>\n
The Iranian ambassador stressed that Israel poses a constant threat to both regional and global peace. He highlighted Israel\u2019s actions against Lebanon, Syria, and Palestinians, asserting that the Israeli regime\u2019s violations of sovereignty and territorial integrity are clear breaches of international law.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBeyond the genocide and crimes against humanity committed against Palestinians, Israel\u2019s aggression continues against Lebanon and Syria, undermining peace in the region and violating UN resolutions,\u201d Iravani stated.<\/p>\n
He urged the international community to remain focused on Israel\u2019s crimes and called on the UN Security Council to hold Israel accountable for its actions.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
