Iran Condemns New Israeli Strikes on Gaza

Iran condemned recent Israeli attacks on Gaza. Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson accused the US of supporting genocide in Palestinian territories. Israel denied these accusations, stating its military actions target Hamas for self-defense, not the Palestinian people.

Iran has issued a strong condemnation of the latest Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip, which occurred this Tuesday.

During a statement, Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, laid blame at the door of the United States, attributing direct responsibility to it for what he described as the ongoing genocide in the occupied Palestinian territories.

In response, Israel has rejected claims that their military operations constitute state-led genocide against Palestinians, clarifying that their actions are purely defensive against Hamas, not the Palestinian population.
