“Ismail Baghaei,” spokesperson of the Islamic Republic’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said on Monday, 22 Tir 1405 that “seeking revenge” for the slain leader of the Islamic Republic is a demand, and Tehran will continue pursuing legal and political accountability for those behind the attack on Iran.

Baghaei, at his press conference, said that the demand for justice for those whom he said played a role in the attack on Iran is “a principle,” and that confronting impunity for the perpetrators of these attacks must be put on the agenda. He accused the United States of continuing military actions against Iran.
