Neighbors hosting US forces enabling attacks must clarify stance: Iran

ISTANBUL

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Monday claimed that "some neighboring states" hosting US forces and allowing "attacks on Iran" are "encouraging this slaughter” and must clarify their position.

“Hundreds of Iranian civilians have been killed in Israel-U.S. bombings, including over 200 children," Araghchi wrote on the US social media platform X.

"Reports claim that some neighboring states, which host U.S. forces and permit attacks on Iran, are also actively encouraging this slaughter. Their stances should be promptly clarified,” according to Araghchi.
