TEHRAN - The spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry has asserted that the Zionist regime has been perpetrating crimes against humanity for decades, receiving unwavering support from Western nations, particularly the United States. 

In a statement shared on his X page on Thursday, Nasser Kanaani reported that over the past ten months, the Zionist regime has resulted in the deaths of 40,000 innocent Palestinian civilians, including approximately 15,000 children, in the Gaza Strip, with more than 100,000 individuals injured and many others unaccounted for. 

“Simultaneously, U.S. officials labeling Palestinians and Resistance groups as terrorists, while the U.S. government claims to be committed to protecting Israel from these so-called terrorists,” Kanaani added. 

Kanaani highlighted that the U.S. government is complicit in the financial, military, and political support of what he termed the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people, based on a flawed and nonsensical rationale. 

He further characterized the Zionist regime as a racist terrorist entity that has systematically violated the fundamental, natural, and human rights of the Palestinian population.
