Iran's Ambassador to UN: Any double standard or selective approach in condemning terrorism is unacceptable

Pars Today - Iran's Ambassador to the United Nations stated: The Islamic Republic of Iran requests the Security Council and the Secretary-General of the United Nations to condemn the terrorist attack in Sistan and Baluchestan in southeastern Iran in the strongest possible terms and without any ambiguity.

In a letter to the Security Council regarding the terrorist attack in Sistan and Baluchestan, Iran, "Amir Saeed Iravani," Iran's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations, said: Iran requests the Security Council and the Secretary-General of the United Nations to condemn this heinous terrorist act in the strongest possible terms and without any ambiguity. Any double standards or selective approach in condemning terrorism is unacceptable and only undermines the credibility of the Security Council.

Iravani announced: On the evening of Friday, August 22, in the town of Iranshahr, Sistan and Baluchestan Province, in southeastern Iran, armed terrorists from Jaish al-Adl attacked two vehicles carrying Iranian police officers. This cowardly attack resulted in the martyrdom of five police officers. The terrorist group Jaish al-Adl has openly and without any ambiguity claimed responsibility for this crime.

Referring to the terrorist attack on July 26, 2025, in Zahedan, which resulted in the martyrdom of six innocent people, Iran's Ambassador to the UN said: These horrific crimes, which deliberately target law enforcement officers, civilians, and even children, constitute a clear violation of international law, including international humanitarian law. They once again reveal the inhumane, terrorist, and extremist nature of Jaish al-Adl and the serious threat it poses to regional peace and security.

The Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations emphasized: This terrorist group continues to operate with complete impunity, through its links and support from the terrorist group ISIS and foreign sponsors. Those who provide support, sanctuary, or any facilities to such terrorist groups bear full responsibility for their crimes and must be held fully accountable.
