US EditionRussia condemns US-Israel strikes on Iran as ‘unprovoked act of armed aggression’
Russia called the strikes a pre-planned aggression risking humanitarian and radiological disaster and urged an immediate halt with diplomacy, placing full blame on the U.S. and Israel.
- Yesterday, the United States and Israel struck targets inside Iran, with explosions heard in Tehran and other locations.
- Assessing weakened defences after last summer's war, US and Israel judged Iran vulnerable and saw an opportunity that should not be squandered.
- Israel described its action as "pre-emptive" while the US was deploying two carrier strike groups and land-based firepower, yet neither has published evidence of an imminent attack.
- Iran has retaliated against Israeli and US assets in some Gulf states, while multiple explosions were heard in Tehran; United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the escalation.
- There is no precedent for regime change from air strikes, and observers say the legal justification of self-defence is hard to see given the disparity between the US, Israel, and Iran.
