The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has strongly condemned the killing of six Iranian diplomats following Israeli air strikes in Lebanon, according to official reports.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the Tasnim news agency, citing the Iranian MFA, identified the deceased diplomats as Seyed Mohammadreza Mousavi, Alireza Biyazar, Majid Hasani Kandasar, Hossein Ahmadlou, Ahmad Rasouli, and Amir Moradi. "The Israeli military committed a crime by attacking the residence of Iranian diplomats," the MFA statement emphasized, noting that such an assault on a diplomatic mission constitutes a severe breach of international law and diplomatic immunity.
This incident occurs amid escalating regional tensions and intensified military operations in Lebanon. Under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, the premises of a diplomatic mission are inviolable, and host nations, along with belligerent parties, are required to ensure the protection of diplomatic personnel. The international community has frequently called for the preservation of diplomatic channels and the protection of non-combatants in conflict zones to prevent further regional destabilization.
