Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian condemns the Israeli bombing in Beirut’s Dahiyeh district, calling it an “open and fragrant war crime that once again revealed the nature of state terrorism of this regime.”
Pezeshkian expresses his sympathy to the Lebanese people and offers his condolences to the families of the “martyrs,” and says he expects all countries — especially Muslim ones — to condemn the act. He does not mention the fact that Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was targeted in the strike.
