UNITED NATIONS – Iran says that Israel “must be compelled to stop any further military adventurism against our interests,” during a United Nations Security Council session.
“In case of any use of force by the Israeli regime and violating our sovereignty, the Islamic Republic of Iran will not hesitate a bit to assert its inherent rights to give a decisive and proper response to it to make the regime regret its actions,” says Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian.
The statement comes amid a vote in the Security Council to grant full membership status to the Palestinian Authority.
