“ Solid proof ”: Iran says that we are responsible for the attack on Israel | News Israel-Iran Conflict

Tehran, Iran – The Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Abbas Araghchi, said that Israel’s attacks on his country could not have materialized without the agreement and support of the United States.

“We have well documented and solid evidence of the support provided by American forces in the region and their bases for military attacks on the Zionist regime,” the best Iranian diplomat said on Sunday at a press conference in the capital, Tehran.

He said, more importantly, US President Donald Trump confirmed publicly and explicitly that he knew the attacks, that they could not have occurred without arms and American equipment, and that other attacks arrive.

“Consequently, the United States, in our opinion, is a partner of these attacks and must accept its responsibility.”

Araghchi said Tehran had received messages from Washington from various intermediaries that he was not involved in Israeli attacks against Iranian nuclear installations in Natanz d’Isfahan, but “she does not believe this assertion” due to proof.

“It is necessary that the American government clearly declares its position and explicitly condemn the attack on nuclear installations,” he said. “This act is condemned under international law, and our expectation is that the American government, in order to prove its good faith concerning nuclear weapons, will condemn the attack on a peaceful nuclear installation and the distance itself of this conflict.”

Stressing that Israeli attacks came when Iran and the United States had to organize a sixth cycle of nuclear negotiations mediated by Oman on Sunday, Araghchi stressed that Israel “will do everything” to stop talks and diplomacy, as has done in the past.

“Major strategic error”

Iranian authorities have said that Israeli attacks, which have targeted residential and military areas in Tehran as well as many cities across the country since Friday, have killed at least 80 people, including civilians.

Several high -ranking commanders of the Iranian armed forces and the body of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) have also been murdered, as are a certain number of nuclear scientists and university professors.

Iran has so far launched two nights of reprisal attacks against such Aviv and Haifa of Israel, using hundreds of missiles and drones, which have resulted in at least 10 deaths and dozens of injuries.

Araghchi told journalists that Iran’s attacks during the night in Sunday began to target the energy infrastructure of Israel after the Israeli army struck refineries, power plants and oil reserves across Iran.

While the sounds of explosions and aerial defenses sounded in Tehran in the early hours of Sunday, Israel struck a fuel reserve in the district of Shahran in the west of Tehran which caused a massive fire. The authorities said that the fire was contained after several hours and that most of the reserve fuel had been withdrawn before the air raids.

On Saturday, the Israeli army struck Asaluyeh on the southern coasts of Iran in the Bushehr province, reaching phase 14 of South Pars, the largest gas field in the world.

Araghchi said the attack was a “major strategic error” which was probably deliberately made with the intention of dragging other nations in the war.

“The Persian Gulf region is extremely sensitive and complex, and any military development could involve the whole region, and even the whole world,” he said, using the name of the Gulf, which is also commonly called Persian Gulf.

Iran and Israel have said that their attacks are continuing so far, and that the Israeli army has published a threat to Iranians on Sunday to stay away from what it called “military weapons production factories and their support institutions”, or may be killed.

But Araghchi said Tehran was ready to stop if Israel interrupts his attacks and urged the international community to intervene and condemn Israel.

‘National Battle’

On Sunday, Iranian newspapers devoted their first pages to war on Sunday, with more hard maneuvering points of sale on Iran’s attacks while others focus on a feeling of national unity.

Keyhan, whose editor -in -chief is appointed by the supreme chief of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, published the title: “We will end the war and Israel together”, and wrote on “unprecedented damage in the occupied territories” caused by Iranian missiles.

“National Battle”, read a title of the Reformist Ham-Mihan, with Etemad Newspaper writing on “Israel’s Gamble on a field of mines” and Sazandegi highlighting “Slap for Tel Aviv” in its history.

For the first time in almost four decades, Iranian state television broadcast a victory march on Saturday. It was heard last time in the 1980s during the Iranian eight -year invasion by neighboring Iraq, which was supported and armed by major powers.

Mehdi Chamran, president of the Tehran municipal council, said that the capital will soon be forced to use the same shelters used during this war, as well as metro stations and parking lots, because no dedicated shelters were built.

Government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani said on Sunday that all thefts were canceled until further notice and tried to ensure people that measures are underway to ensure that the state can provide basic necessities, including fuel, in the event of prolonged conflict.

The Chamber of Guilds in Tehran has announced that all business associations, large bazaars and shopping centers were open in the capital, but government employees were invited to work remotely until at least on Wednesday, in an indication that Tehran should be struck again.

The Tehran Stock Exchange was also closed on Sunday, its director saying that the decision to keep it closed or open it for Monday will be taken to light, given the developments on Sunday evening.

Iran’s currency, the Rial, has taken another nose since the start of the last conflict, standing around 840,000 against the US dollar before Israeli attacks at around 955,000 on Sunday.
