Oh snap! Tensions are heating up in the Middle East again. Iran's foreign ministry slammed Israeli air strikes on Saturday after two Iranian soldiers were killed. 😲
In a strong statement, Tehran condemned the attacks \"in the strongest terms,\" emphasizing that it's \"entitled and obligated to defend itself against external aggressive acts.\"
Calling out Israel for a \"blatant violation of international law and the United Nations Charter,\" Iran stressed that it recognizes its responsibilities toward regional peace and security.
They also pointed fingers at the \"continuation of occupation, illegal actions, and crimes\" by Israel, backed by the US and some Western countries, as the main cause of tension and insecurity in the region.
The loss of two soldiers has only intensified the situation. Iran's army confirmed the casualties earlier today.
Stay tuned, folks—this story is developing, and it's one we all should keep an eye on. 👀
