Iran’s foreign minister condemns US strikes

Kathmandu: Iran’s foreign minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, has condemned the US strikes as “outrageous” and says Iran is reserving “all options to defend its sovereignty”.

The BBC cited Foreign Minister Abbas’s post on social media X as saying the events this morning are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences. He said each member of the UN must be alarmed by this extremely dangerous, lawless, and criminal behavior.

The Foreign Minister said that as a member of the UN Security Council, the US has “committed a grave violation” of the UN charter.

Meanwhile, in a national address from the White House, US President Donald Trump said Iran must make peace or future attacks will be “far greater.”

Earlier, US President Donald Trump said US completed strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordo, Natanz and Esfahan.

Taking to his social media, President Trump said attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan has been completed and all planes are outside of Iran air space.

Trump added that a “full payload of bombs” were dropped on Fordo and all planes were on their way back to the US.
