The Latest News from Nigeria and Around the World
Israel and Iran accused one another Sunday at the United Nations of being the main threat to peace in the Middle East, each calling on the Security Council to impose sanctions on their sworn enemy.“The mask is off. Iran, the number one global sponsor of terror, has exposed its true face as the destabilizer of the region and the world,” Israel’s UN Ambassador Gilad Erdan told an emergency meeting of the Security Council convened after Tehran’s unprecedented attack on Israel overnight.
Addressing the emergency meeting, Iran’s UN Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani insisted the Islamic Republic was exercising its “inherent right to self-defence.”“The Security Council… failed in its duty to maintain international peace and security,” Iravani said. The rising tensions come against the backdrop of Israel’s six-month-old war against Hamas in Gaza, which began after the Palestinian militant group’s October 7 attack in Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,170 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on Israeli figures.
