Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has made strong accusations against Israel. He claims Israeli media reports now admit a role in the violence rocking Iran.
Iranian Streets Soaked in Blood
Araghchi delivered a fiery statement on the ongoing anti-government protests. He said Iran's streets are soaked in blood due to foreign interference. The minister pointed to hundreds of deaths during the demonstrations.
Israeli Media Comments Spark Outrage
The accusations follow comments by an Israeli journalist. This journalist suggested foreign elements are supplying live weapons to protesters in Iran. Araghchi seized on these remarks as vindication for Iran's long-standing claims.
He accused Israel of openly arming protesters. The foreign minister also claimed Israel is attempting to drag the United States into a wider regional conflict.
Call for American Restraint
Araghchi directly addressed President Donald Trump in his statement. He urged Trump to restrain Israel if Washington truly wants the violence to stop. The minister framed this as a test of American intentions in the region.
Regional Tensions Continue to Rise
U.S. officials have warned of rising tensions across the Middle East. They express concern about possible escalation following the violent protests in Iran. The situation remains volatile as accusations fly between Tehran and Tel Aviv.
The Iranian foreign minister's statement represents the latest escalation in rhetoric. It comes amid reports of continued clashes between protesters and security forces. International observers watch nervously as the crisis deepens.
