US condemns ‘barbaric’ attack on Ilam hospital
The US State Department’s Persian‑language account on X on Monday condemned what it called a “barbaric attack” by the Islamic Republic on a hospital in Ilam, sharing a video of security forces storming the facility and calling the assault a crime against humanity and a gross violation of international law.
“The brutal attack by the Islamic Republic regime on a hospital in Ilam is a crime. The raid on wards, the beating of medical staff, and the assault on the injured with tear gas and live ammunition is a blatant crime against humanity. Hospitals are not battlefields. These actions by the Islamic Republic regime constitute a flagrant violation of international laws and demonstrate a regime that treats human lives with complete disregard," the post said.
