Tehran:
Iran on Monday warned the USA would bear “full accountability” in case of a retaliatory assault by Israel on the Islamic Republic, after US President Joe Biden indicated he was conscious of Israeli plans to take action.
Amir Saeid Iravani, Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations, known as Biden’s remarks “profoundly alarming and provocative” in a letter addressed to United Nations chief Antonio Guterres and the Swiss presidency of the UN Safety Council.
The US president responded “sure and sure” when requested Friday by a reporter if he had “a superb understanding proper now” of how and when Israel would reply to Iran’s missile barrage on October 1.
Iran launched round 200 ballistic missiles at Israel in retaliation for the killing of Tehran-backed leaders belonging to Hamas and Hezbollah, and an Iranian Revolutionary Guard basic.
US ally Israel, at warfare with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, vowed revenge towards Iran for the strikes.
“This inflammatory assertion (of Biden) is deeply regarding, because it signifies the USA’ tacit approval and express assist for Israel’s illegal navy aggression towards Iran,” Iravani wrote within the letter.
“Subsequently, the USA will bear full accountability for its position in instigating, inciting and enabling any acts of aggression by Israel towards the Islamic Republic of Iran, in flagrant violation of the basic rules of worldwide regulation and the United Nations Constitution,” he mentioned.
In line with the Washington Put up, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed Biden that he intends to strike Iran’s navy websites, and to not goal nuclear or oil infrastructure.
