Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has strongly condemned the recent Israeli airstrike on Iran’s Arak Heavy Water Reactor, calling on the United Nations Security Council to enforce Resolution 487 which was unanimously adopted in 1981 following Israel’s attack on Iraq’s nuclear facility, according to Iranian media outlet Tehran Times.
He emphasised that the Arak facility was fully compliant with the requirements of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal designed to eliminate any proliferation risk.
“It is imperative that it upholds and enforces its own Resolution 487,” he wrote, drawing a parallel between the two incidents.
“The attack resulted in no casualties or injuries. Thanks to security measures taken in advance, there is no risk or damage to the population in the area surrounding the facility,” the statement read.
