Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh confirmed on Sunday that Israel had carried out a “deliberate and ruthless” strike on the library of Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tehran.
”Several civilians were injured in the attack, including a number of my colleagues who were taken to the hospital for treatment,” Khatibzadeh said in a post on X.
Khatibzadeh shared video of the aftermath of the strike showing the interior of the library with blown out windows and concrete debris strewn across the floor.
”This is yet another clear war crime, part of the regime of Israel’s ongoing and systematic campaign of aggression against Iran,”Khatibzadeh said.
