Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has claimed last night’s attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait are the direct result of the US and Israel’s multiple violations of the ceasefire agreement brokered on April 8, and that America must “bear responsibility” for the attacks.
In a statement, the Islamic Republic accused the Israeli regime of “flagrantly violating the ceasefire by infringing upon Lebanon’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty, resulting in the martyrdom and injury of several thousand Lebanese citizens, the displacement of two million people, and the destruction of the country’s infrastructure and residential homes.
“A violation of the ceasefire on any front constitutes a violation of the ceasefire on all fronts,” they added.
The United States, meanwhile, is accused of “repeatedly committed blatant violations of the agreement, including its continued attacks against Iranian commercial shipping.”
“It is self-evident that the Islamic Republic of Iran will, with full determination and by utilizing all available capacities, defend its interests wherever it deems necessary, based on its inherent right of self-defense under international law,” the statement read.
