Iran reacts to US airstrikes on Iraq, Syria

MEHR: Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani has reacted to the airstrikes launched by the United States on Iraq and Syria early on Saturday.

United States President Joe Biden on Saturday confirmed the US airstrikes on targets in eastern Syria and western Iraq in retaliation for the death of three soldiers on Jan. 28, pledging that the attacks will continue.​

Considering the attacks as a violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Iraq and Syria, international law, and a clear violation of the United Nations Charter, the senior Iranian diplomat stressed that last night's attack on Syria and Iraq was another strategic mistake made by the American government, which will have no result other than the escalation of tension and instability in the region.  

Kan'ani went on to say that the US military attacks on Iraq, Syria, and Yemen were aimed at serving the goals of the Zionist regime.
