«وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِینَ قُتِلُوا فِی سَبِیلِ اللَّهِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْیَاءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ یُرْزَقُونَ»  “And do not think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.”  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran strongly condemns the heinous crime of the murderous Zionist regime in attacking the residence of several Iranian diplomats in Lebanon.  This terrorist crime, which was planned and carried out as part of the regime’s continued aggressive actions and atrocities against the Iranian nation, reflects the malevolent nature of the occupying regime and its inherent conflict with fundamental legal and humanitarian norms, including the principle of diplomatic immunity and the necessity of respect for the national sovereignty of the host country.  The Zionist regime’s terrorist act of assassinating Iranian diplomats is a clear instance of organized terrorism and a blatant violation of the foundational principles of international law.  While offering congratulations and condolences on the martyrdom of these dear ones to their respected families and the entire Iranian nation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran will utilize all legal and international capacities to pursue this crime and hold the brutal Zionist regime accountable.  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, while commemorating the memory of the esteemed martyrs—Seyed Mohammad Reza Mousavi, Alireza Bi-Azar, Majid Hassani Kandsar, Hossein Ahmadlou, Ahmad Rasouli, and Amir Moradi—emphasizes its commitment and pledge to continue their proud path in safeguarding Iran’s security and national interests.
