Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the new Zionist aggression targeting Sana’a International Airport and the destruction of a Yemenia passenger plane, describing it as “a new indication of the Zionist entity’s barbarism and hostility toward the Muslim Yemeni people and the region.”
In a statement, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei described the Zionist entity’s aggression during the Hajj season, aimed at preventing Yemeni pilgrims from reaching the holy lands and participating in the Hajj rituals, as a major crime. He called for immediate and serious action by international organizations, especially the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), to address this situation.
The Foreign Ministry spokesman pointed to the Zionist entity’s repeated attacks on Yemen’s economic infrastructure and civilian facilities, including ports, airports, food warehouses, and the like.
He considered these attacks a clear example of war crimes and crimes against humanity.
He added that the Zionist entity’s brutal aggression toward the Muslim peoples of West Asia is clear evidence of its structural and fundamental disconnection from the peoples of the region, and its leaders’ efforts to spread wars and insecurity in the region and the world.
Baghaei highlighted the legal and moral responsibility of all countries in the region and the world to confront the Zionist entity’s violations of the law and its crimes in occupied Palestine and against other countries in the region.
Baghaei emphasized that the Zionist entity’s impunity, as a result of the inaction of the UN Security Council and the comprehensive US support for this entity, has led to irreversible consequences for the system based on the UN Charter and has exposed international peace and security to an unprecedented threat, requiring urgent action from the international community.
