Title: Iran Urges UN to Investigate Mercenary Involvement in Israeli Aggression
Iran Demands Immediate UN Probe Into Foreign Mercenary Operations
GENEVA – Iran’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations in Geneva has formally called for an urgent and comprehensive investigation into Israel’s alleged use of foreign mercenaries in military aggression against Iranian territory. In an official letter to the UN Working Group on the Use of Mercenaries, Iran accused these forces of violating human rights and obstructing nations’ right to self-determination.
Evidence of Organized Mercenary Activity
The letter reportedly includes documented evidence of foreign-backed mercenary networks engaging in targeted assassinations of Iranian scientists, senior military officials, and civilians, as well as coordinated explosions and armed drone operations deep inside Iran. Tehran asserts that these actions constitute a blatant violation of international law, including Article 2(4) of the UN Charter and the 1989 International Convention Against Mercenaries.
Violations of Humanitarian and International Law
Iran’s mission emphasized that such operations not only breach global legal frameworks but also contravene international human rights and humanitarian laws. Official reports indicate that these alleged attacks have resulted in the deaths of over a thousand Iranians.
Call for Accountability and Justice
Iran has urged the UN Working Group to conduct a swift investigation, publicly condemn the use of mercenaries, and collaborate with relevant bodies to ensure accountability. The mission further demanded full commitment from the UN to address this issue with “seriousness, decisiveness, and justice,” ensuring findings are reflected in upcoming reports to the Human Rights Council and General Assembly.
The appeal underscores Iran’s push for international scrutiny into what it describes as destabilizing foreign interference, seeking justice through multilateral diplomatic channels.
