CAIRO (Reuters) – Iran’s embassy in Lebanon said on X that Friday’s Israeli strike on Beirut’s southern suburbs represents a dangerous game-changing escalation that will “bring its perpetrator an appropriate punishment.”
Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani said the strike was a “war crime” for which both Israel and the United States should be held accountable, state media reported.
“This barbaric attack, which was carried out with bombs donated by the U.S. regime to the rogue Zionist regime … is a clear and undeniable war crime. Therefore, the American regime is also an accomplice along with the Zionist regime and must be held accountable,” Kanaani said, according to state media.
