Iran warns of US, Israeli plots to expand aggression by involving other states, staging 'false-flag ops.'
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that the United States and the Israeli regime might seek to expand their ongoing unprovoked aggression targeting Iran.
The top diplomat made the remarks in a phone call with his Greek counterpart Georgios Gerapetritis on Saturday.
Araghchi cautioned about schemes harbored by Washington and Tel Aviv to expand the scope of the aggression "by compelling other countries to participate in the aggression or conduct false-flag operations against third countries."

He recalled the legal duties of countries under the international law to prevent aggressors from using their territory or resources to plan, support, or carry out acts of aggression.
Araghchi detailed the crimes committed by the duo during the now-one-month-long military aggression, noting that the attacks "constitute a clear violation of Article 4 of the United Nations Charter and an obvious case of military aggression against a UN member state."
He reminded all countries of their responsibility to condemn illegal attacks and violations of humanitarian law.
"Indifference to the unlawful and terrorist American and Israeli actions undermines the international normative and moral order, with consequences affecting all nations."
Araghchi emphasized that the Islamic Republic would continue defensive operations against the aggressors and their military bases or facilities located in regional countries.

The Iranian foreign minister also stressed that insecurity in the Strait of Hormuz was a direct result of the aggression, and that the Islamic Republic had taken measures to prevent the waterway from being exploited by the aggressors, while ensuring safe passage for other vessels.
For his part, the Greek official expressed serious concern about the consequences of the situation and expressed hope that peace and stability would return to the region as soon as possible.
