HAMILTON, Canada

Iran's UN envoy condemned the recent US bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities as "another stain" in the political history of Washington while also accusing Israel of sabotaging diplomacy.

"Today, another stain was recorded in the political history of the US," said Amir Saeid Iravani at an emergency UN Security Council session Sunday on the attacks.

"After the illegitimate Israeli regime failed to do the West's 'dirty work,' (US President Donald) Trump was forced in the early hours of Sunday, June 22, 2025, to personally carry out the most sordid part of this vile agenda," Iravani said.

He asserted that "once again, the internationally wanted war criminal (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu succeeded in hijacking US foreign policy, dragging the US into yet another costly and baseless war."

"America has, once more, recklessly chosen to sacrifice its own security merely to safeguard Netanyahu," he said, adding that "once again, the world has witnessed the blatant corruption of the US political system and its leaders."

Rejecting US claims justifying the strikes, Iravani said, "The facts speak for themselves: all US allegations against Iran are unfounded, with no legal basis and politically motivated."

The Iranian envoy also accused the US of destabilizing the Middle East for decades.

"From its illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan to its catastrophic intervention in Libya, the US has ignored the UN Charter, shattered entire societies and destabilized the region for decades."

Iran had been preparing for diplomacy with the US, Iravani said, before Israel "decided to destroy diplomacy." He described US overtures as "nothing more than a deceitful ploy to mislead the international community."

Calling on the Security Council to act, he urged members to "place the Israeli nuclear facilities under Agency safeguards."

He warned that "failure to do so will lead to the gradual decline of the very aspiration of the non-proliferation regime."

"If this Council fails to act and condemn this blatant aggression, the stain of complicity will forever remain on its conscience, as it does with Gaza," he said.

The emergency session comes following Trump's announcement early Sunday that US forces bombed three Iranian nuclear sites -- Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan.

The US targeted the sites with six bunker-buster bombs dropped on the Fordo facility with B-2 stealth bombers, along with dozens of submarine-launched cruise missile strikes on the Natanz and Isfahan facilities.

The attacks came as the latest escalation in a US-backed Israeli military assault on Iran since June 13, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory attacks on Israel.

Israeli authorities said at least 25 people have been killed and hundreds injured since then in Iranian missile attacks.
