SAEDNEWS: Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson condemned the continued killing of Palestinians and severe human rights violations in Gaza and the West Bank, calling the ongoing siege and destruction a continuation of genocidal policies.
According to Saed News Agency, Esmaeil Baghaei, spokesperson for Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, voiced deep outrage over the ongoing killings and severe human rights and humanitarian violations in Gaza and the West Bank. He strongly condemned the continued blockade of Gaza, the obstruction of debris removal, and efforts to rebuild essential healthcare, medical, and vital infrastructure—conditions that have, he said, intensified the humanitarian disaster amid winter cold and rainfall.
Baghaei described these actions as part of a policy aimed at the “genocide of Palestinians.”
The senior Iranian diplomat also highlighted the escalating wave of terrorist attacks by Israeli settlers in the West Bank, repeated desecrations of Al-Aqsa Mosque and Al Ibrahimi Mosque, and the continuation of arbitrary detentions and torture of Palestinians.
He stressed that the international community carries both legal and moral responsibility to halt the crimes of the occupying regime. “What is happening in the West Bank today is a continuation of a colonial policy aimed at eliminating Palestinians,” he said, particularly in the wake of the killing of tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza over the past two years.
Baghaei further condemned the full-scale military and political support provided to Israel by the United States and certain European governments, accusing them of becoming accomplices in the Israeli regime’s crimes. He emphasized the urgent need to end the impunity of what he called war criminals and perpetrators of genocide.
