In In a sharp escalation of diplomatic tensions, Iran has formally called for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council following recent US military strikes on Iranian targets. Tehran’s move underscores its efforts to internationalize the crisis and rally global condemnation against Washington’s actions.
In a statement issued by Iran’s Foreign Ministry late last night, officials accused the United States of committing “illegal and unprovoked military aggression”, which they claim violated international law and jeopardized regional peace. Iran has urged the Security Council to intervene immediately, warning that failure to act could further destabilize the already volatile Middle East.
Background:
The US strikes, reportedly aimed at Iranian military installations and missile bases, were launched in response to Tehran’s escalating support for militant proxies and alleged attacks on allied interests in the region. The operations have sparked fears of a broader confrontation between the two longtime adversaries.
Global Response:
While the United Nations Secretary-General expressed deep concern and called for restraint on both sides, several nations including Russia, China, and Turkey have voiced support for Iran’s call for a Security Council meeting. Western powers, led by the United States and its allies, maintain that their actions were defensive and targeted.
Iran’s Stand:
Iran’s UN envoy announced that the formal request for an emergency session had been submitted and urged the international community to “hold the United States accountable for its reckless actions.” Tehran claims the strikes have endangered civilians and violated the UN Charter.
What’s Next?
Diplomatic sources suggest the Security Council could convene within the next 48 hours to discuss the matter. The outcome may determine whether the crisis escalates further or opens a narrow window for de-escalation through diplomatic channels.
