A special committee under Iran’s presidential legal affairs office is compiling evidence of Israeli attacks to present to international authorities, including human rights bodies, the UN Security Council, and the International Committee of the Red Cross, Iran’s foreign ministry said on Monday.
“Israel’s actions constitute an act of aggression under international law, involving multiple war crimes,” Esmaeil Baqaei, spokesperson for Iran’s Foreign Ministry said at a weekly briefing.
“We are documenting crimes committed by a regime officially recognized internationally as an apartheid entity, which is subject to prosecution by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The recent actions against Iran have clearly added to its record of crimes. We are pursuing this matter seriously.”
