Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran                                                                  Zagreb-Croatia                                                                     “Press Release” Regarding Israeli Regime’s military and terrorist attacks to Islamic Republic of Iran   Since June 13, 2025, the Zionist regime of Israel has begun its brutal attacks on Iran, including on cities, civilian and public areas, in violation of the territorial integrity of the Islamic Republic of Iran. These inhuman and illegal attacks, which continue to this day, have so far targeted many ordinary citizens and children, in addition to martyring a number of military commanders, scientists and university professors. By launching these attacks in the midst of indirect talks between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the USA, the Zionist regime demonstrated that it is the greatest enemy of security and stability, and the enemy of any possible peaceful solutions. The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Zagreb condemns in the strongest terms the Israeli regime’s acts of aggression against Iran, as a blatant violation of international law, in particular the International Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law, and the United Nations Charter, specifically the principle of prohibiting the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of states. In response to this aggression, Iran is fully entitled to exercise its legitimate right to self-defense in accordance with Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, and the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will not hesitate to defend the Iranian nation and the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran as well. The Islamic Republic of Iran, as a founding member of the United Nations emphasizes the duty of the Security Council of the United Nations to take immediate action to react to aggression and breach of international peace and security by Israel. In this respect, the duties of the UN Secretary-General in accordance with the UN Charter are also recalled. All member countries including the Republic of Croatia are expected to condemn this aggression and to be adhered to the responsibility to maintain international peace and security.
