Iran president speech 

Iran’s President Ebrahim Raeisi met with dozens of foreign ambassadors in Tehran on the occasion of the 43rd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution. During his speech at the event, the president drew an analogy between the current and the former US administrations. He said the Biden administration is no different from its predecessor in its policies and actions. The president also talked about Iran's 2015 deal, saying the status quo is the result of Washington’s withdrawal and the inaction of other signatories. President Raeisi said diplomacy only works when all sides abide by their commitments. And pointing out to the ongoing Vienna talks, he said any negotiations should guarantee Iran’s national interests. 

Yemen downs aircraft 

The Yemeni army says it has shot down another intruding Saudi spy drone. The spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces says air defenses downed the CH-4 spy aircraft while carrying out hostile acts over Hajjah province. Yahya Saree adds that the surface-to-air missile targeting the plane has not yet been unveiled. Yemen has brought down tens of drones in the course of Saudi Arabia’s seven-year aggression on the country. The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead, and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread infectious diseases.

Syria condemning Israeli strikes

Syria has strongly condemned Israel’s latest missile strike on its territory. The Foreign Ministry says the aggression is a violation of international law, UN principles and its resolutions. It says the attacks come amid an international silence and under the protection of the US that encourages Tel Aviv to repeat its aggression on Syria. It says Damascus has the right to use all legitimate means to respond. Israel unleashed a missile strike on Qudsayya City near the capital Damascus early Wednesday. A soldier was killed and five others were wounded. It also caused damage to residential buildings.
