Iran engages domestic, foreign NGOs to pursue Zionist regime's crimes
TEHRAN- Mohammad Dehghan, Iran's Vice President for Legal Affairs, has announced the nation's concerted effort to address the crimes perpetrated by the Zionist regime.
Speaking on the sideline of the cabinet meeting, Dehghan revealed Iran's strategy of leveraging both domestic and foreign non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to hold the occupying regime accountable.
He disclosed an ongoing collaboration with NGOs to document the actions and crimes of the Zionist regime, emphasizing the utilization of domestic NGO capacities.
Highlighting Iran's engagement with foreign NGOs, Dehghan underscored the importance of utilizing their resources to prevent crimes committed by the Zionist regime.
Moreover, he reiterated Iran's stance on the Zionist regime, emphasizing that the Islamic Republic does not recognize it as a legitimate government and thus follows alternative avenues to hold the Zionist regime accountable.
In early April, Dehghan stated that Tehran would take Israel to court for the regime’s Monday attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus which has led to the death of at least 13 people including a top military general and his deputy.
“The National Security Council will make decisions in this regard. The government will release the details once everything has been set,” Dehghan stated.
Multiple Israeli fighter jets lobbed missiles at Iran’s embassy in the Syrian capital, flattening the consular part of the compound. Iran vowed to make Israel regret the illegal and barbaric act.
According to international law, the act of attacking an embassy of another country is deemed a violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. This convention explicitly states that embassies are considered inviolable and should be safeguarded from any form of intrusion or harm.
The West has so far refused to condemn the Israeli attack and has instead opted to blame Iran for its support towards resistance forces and asked it to exercise “restraint.”
