The first reactions from Iran, after the bombardment of their nuclear facilities by America, are between counter-threats and claims of little damage.
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi warned that he would American attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities "have lasting effects". In a post on his X Network account, Aragchi indicated that official Tehran was keeping all options open for a response, The Times of Israel reported.
"This morning's events are outrageous and will have lasting consequences. In accordance with the United Nations (UN) Charter and its provisions that allow a legitimate response in self-defense, Iran is considering all options to defend its sovereignty, interests and people," Arakchi said.
He assessed that the United States, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, committed a serious violation of the UN Charter and international law by attacking Iran's nuclear facilities.
"Every UN member state must be alarmed by this extremely dangerous act of lawlessness and criminal behavior," Aragchi posted on his X Network account.
He is the first high-ranking Iranian official to comment on the US attacks on Iran's Isfahan, Fordo and Natanz nuclear facilities, Tanjug reports.
Security Council session
Iran also requested an extraordinary session of the United Nations Security Council, according to a letter published on Sunday, June 22, calling on the Council to condemn the US strikes on its nuclear facilities, writes CNN.
In the letter, Iran's ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeed Iravani, called the US attack "a serious threat to regional and international peace and security."
He also stated that "the attacks were carried out under the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)".
The letter added that the strikes were a violation of the UN Charter and the International Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), and called for an emergency session "to investigate this illegal act, take the necessary measures to condemn it and ensure that those responsible do not go unpunished."
The blow is not big.
Iran claims that the country's nuclear balance suffered only minor damage.
Hassan Abedini, the deputy political director of Iran's public service, said that all three nuclear facilities had been evacuated "some time ago".
Even if what Trump said is true, Iran "didn't suffer a big blow because all the materials have already been brought out," Abedini said.
