"We have solid proof of the support of the American forces and American bases in the region for the attacks of the Zionist regime military forces," Araghchi told foreign diplomats in a meeting broadcast on state TV.
He said that Israel had "crossed a new red line" by targeting Iran's nuclear sites in strikes.The FM slammed the United Nations Security Council, accusing it of "indifference" over Israel's deadly attacks on Iran.Araghchi said the Israeli attack "is being met with indifference at the Security Council", adding that Western governments have "condemned Iran instead of Israel despite it being the side that was violated".He further stated that the attacks on Israel will end once Israel halts its military campaign against the Islamic republic."We are defending ourselves; our defence is entirely legitimate," said Araghchi in a meeting with foreign diplomats, adding that "this defence is our response to aggression. If the aggression stops, naturally our responses will also stop."
