Iran condemns U.S. military actions in Yemen and labels accusations against it as baseless. Ambassador Amir Saied Iravani emphasized violations of international law and warns of consequences for any aggression against Iran. He urges the UN Security Council to take a stance against U.S. threats and aggression toward sovereign nations.
Iran has officially rebuked the recent accusations made by officials within the Trump Administration, labeling them as entirely unfounded. Iranian Ambassador to the United Nations, Amir Saied Iravani, expressed his deep concern and condemnation of the United States’ aggressive stance toward Yemen in a letter addressed to the UN Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council.
Iravani remarked on the U.S. officials’ attempts to justify military actions against Yemen through baseless allegations directed at Iran. He highlighted that these inflammatory statements represent a clear violation of international law and the UN Charter, specifically mentioning the prohibition of using threats or force against sovereign nations.
The ambassador pointed out that over 50 individuals, primarily women and children, lost their lives following U.S. airstrikes on Yemen since President Trump assumed office. He emphasized Iran’s rejection of such reckless rhetoric and warned the U.S. against the ramifications of aggressing against Iran, urging the UN Security Council to respond appropriately to these provocations.
Moreover, Iravani denounced the recent military actions conducted by the U.S. and U.K. against Yemen, affirming that these actions infringe upon Yemen’s sovereignty and violate international law. He asserted that Iran remains committed to its obligations under international law while emphasizing the autonomous nature of Yemeni forces in their military operations. The conflict escalated following U.S. airstrikes across Yemen, which prompted warnings from the Ansarullah resistance movement regarding retaliatory action against American military assets in the region.
In summary, Iran has condemned the U.S. accusations and military actions in Yemen, asserting that they violate international law. Ambassador Iravani’s statements reflect a strong rejection of U.S. threats and call for the UN Security Council to address the situation. The ongoing violence has resulted in significant civilian casualties, and Iran insists on the need for adherence to sovereign rights and international norms.
