The Israeli regime imposed land, aerial, and naval blockades on the Gaza Strip in June 2007, after the Palestinian resistance movement of Hamas took over the administration of the territory in elections.” Iran’s UN mission has described the Israeli regime as the key culprit in inciting crisis in the Middle East, pointing to the brutal killing of Palestinians through the use of diverse weaponry as just a portion of the crimes instigated by Tel Aviv. Speaking before a meeting of the UN Security Council on the protection of civilians in armed conflicts on Monday, a member of Iran’s permanent mission at the United Nations headquarters in New York, Seyed Mohammad Ali Mottaqi-Nejad, said the persistent killings and violation of rights perpetrated against Palestinian people in the occupied territories are the outcome of the Israeli regime’s lack of accountability. He further called on the Council to take appropriate measures to protect civilians in occupied Palestine and other parts of the globe.
