Iranian President Raps Inaction on Israeli Crimes
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – President of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian lashed out at the self-proclaimed advocates of human rights and peace for remaining silent on the Zionist regime’s criminal acts that claimed the lives of Iranian scientists during the 12-day imposed war in June.
The president on Tuesday attended a ceremony at the memorial for the scientists of Faculty of Nuclear Engineering of Shahid Beheshti University who were martyred in the Israeli war of aggression in June.
In comments at the event, Pezeshkian criticized the self-proclaimed champions of democracy, human rights, and peace, declaring their claims to be mere facades, his official website reported.
He emphasized that those honored at the memorial dedicated their lives to serving the Iranian people and protecting the nation from unjust aggression, ultimately becoming victims of the Israeli regime's actions.
"These individuals had no sins other than their knowledge and their determination to equip their country with advanced technologies," he added.
The president commemorated the memory of the country's martyrs in science and technology, expressing hope that the youth would carry on their legacy with strength and strive for the nation's independence and freedom.
He further condemned the aggressive actions of the Israeli regime, which he said are supported fully by the United States and European countries.
Pezeshkian described the Israeli actions in Gaza as shameful, noting, “The Israelis are aggressors who enjoy full support from the United States. They have the platform, money, force, and power, and today, in addition to widespread killings, they block access to water, medicine, bread, and food, leaving people trapped in hunger. This behavior is disgraceful.”
