The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iran said Iran reserves the right to defend itself and respond to what it described as military aggression by Israel and the United States.
Tehran said Saturday’s attacks violated Iran’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity and were contrary to the United Nations Charter.
The ministry said the armed forces of the Islamic Republic would defend the country using all available capabilities and resources.
In its statement, the ministry also called on the United Nations Security Council to take immediate action in response to the attacks and urged the international community to condemn them.
The statement added that, at what it described as a decisive moment in history, Iran’s armed forces would not hesitate to defend the country and that Iranians would not surrender in the face of aggression.
