Israel-Iran War Live Updates: Iran vows retaliation as UN Council convenes emergency meeting on Israeli airstrikes

Israel-Iran War Live Updates: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian condemned the attacks and vowed to respond “appropriately,” emphasizing that while Iran does not seek war, it will defend itself.

Israel-Iran War News Live: The UN Security Council will hold an emergency meeting on Monday afternoon at Iran’s request regarding recent Israeli airstrikes on Iran. Additionally, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian condemned the attacks and vowed to respond “appropriately,” emphasizing that while Iran does not seek war, it will defend itself. Pezeshkian accused the US of breaking a promise to end the conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon, claiming the US was encouraging Israel’s actions, according to the Associated Press. Iran reported that a civilian, identified as Allahverdi Rahimpour, was killed in the strikes, though no further details were provided.

Israel’s onslaught in Gaza: Israel unleashed a fresh round of aerial attacks in northern Gaza on Sunday, killing around 70 people in the last 24 hours, said health officials in the enclave. This is happening when there was an indication that Israeli military campaigns were abating in light of renewed ceasefire talks, which have gained pace over the past fortnight. The resumption of the fighting signals that the two sides are yet to scale down tensions as efforts in the diplomatic quarter remain bent on seeking a stop-gap end to the confrontation, according to The Guardian reports.

Israeli strikes hit Iran: Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Saturday that it had completed a series of airstrikes against Iranian military sites. Reacting to the attacks, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he wanted to say nothing except to caution all Iranians not to exaggerate nor belittle the action. On the whole, he refrained short of a call for overt reprisal. Iran said that it was more important to negotiate a ceasefire in Gaza or Lebanon than to retaliate, but it still reserves the right to retaliate.
