Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran

پاسخ جمهوری اسلامی ایران به هرتجاوزستمکارانه‌ای، سخت وپشیمان کننده خواهدبود. Iran’s response to any oppressive act of aggression will be firm and deeply regret-inducing. تؤكدالجمهورية الإسلامية الإيرانية على أيّ عملٍ عدواني ظالم سيكون حاسمًا ومؤلمًا،ويجعل المعتدي نادمًا على فعله.

Iran has consistently honored its commitments and explored every avenue to avert war; all paths remain open from our side. Forcing Iran to surrender through coercion is nothing but an illusion. Mutual respect in diplomacy is far wiser, safer, and more sustainable than war.

Minister of Justice Amin Hossein Rahimi has left Tehran for Ahmedabad, India, to attend the #BRICS Ministers of Justice Meeting (May 21-22). The summit will review the BRICS justice declaration and discuss alternative dispute resolution mechanisms as key priorities for 2026.

The claim by U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) that the targeted #Shajareh_Tayyebeh Elementary School in #Minab was located within a "missile launch facility" is a baseless fabrication and an appalling lie. This shameless distortion is a clear attempt to obscure the severe reality of the 28 February missile attacks, which resulted in the tragic slaughtering of over 170 school children and their teachers. Targetting an active educational institution during school hours constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law and is a clear war crime. The civilian nature of the site cannot be obscured by technical misrepresentations. The military commanders and United States authorities responsible for ordering and executing this catastrophic assault must be held fully accountable under international law.

Months after initiation of war on Iran, US Congress acknowledges loss of dozens of aircraft worth billions. Our powerful Armed Forces are confirmed as 1st to strike down a touted F-35. With lessons learned and knowledge we gained, return to war will feature many more surprises.

Today at #WHA79, I spoke for the children of Minab — children who should have been in classrooms, not among the victims of war. When I reminded the Assembly that “they were not combatants, but children with dreams,” silence and sorrow filled the hall. 🕊️ #WorldHealthAssem
