Iran Urges Emergency UN Security Council Meeting Following U.S. Attack

5 hours ago 3

TEMPO.CO, JakartaIran has formally requested an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), according to a letter issued on Sunday, June 22, 2025. As reported by TASS, Tehran is urging the UNSC to condemn a United States attack on three of its nuclear facilities.

In the letter, Iran's Ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, described the US attack as a "grave threat against regional and international peace and security." He confirmed that the Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites were targeted in an assault early on Sunday.

Iravani also controversially claimed the attack occurred "under the full supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)," the UN nuclear watchdog, though he provided no evidence to support this assertion. Iran has grown increasingly critical of the IAEA since the conflict with Israel intensified.

The Ambassador asserted that the attack violates the UN Charter and the International Non-Proliferation Agreement. He called for an emergency meeting "to examine this unlawful act, adopt necessary measures to condemn it and ensure that those responsible will not be left unpunished."

The U.S. operation was announced by President Donald Trump, who stated that US forces had "successfully attacked three nuclear locations in Iran," including Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, on Saturday night. This comes as the conflict between Israel and Iran entered its second week. A source told CNN that American B-2 bombers were utilized in the weekend operation.

Iranian government media reports indicate that regional officials in Iran have confirmed that the Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow nuclear facilities were indeed attacked.
