\u201cThe U.S. has been involved in the aggression since day one,\u201d said Araghchi, speaking in Istanbul, which is hosting a meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).<\/p>\n

The conference was convened after Israeli air attacks on Iranian military facilities, aiming at dismantling its nuclear program, escalated into a full-blown ballistic exchange that has lasted nine days now. Trump has lent his support to Israel, but has so far not decided whether to intervene militarily on the side of the American ally.<\/p>\n

Araghchi added that Tehran is \u201cabsolutely ready for a negotiated solution for our nuclear program.\u201d<\/p>\n

Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan also commented on the ongoing conflict, calling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the \u201cbiggest obstacle to regional peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNetanyahu\u2019s Zionist ambitions have no other purpose than to drag our region and \u2026 the whole world into a big disaster,\u201d Erdo\u011fan said at the conference.<\/p>\n

The target of Israel’s overnight attack was two centrifuge production sites, and the attacks came on top of strikes on other centrifuge production sites elsewhere in recent days, the Associated Press reported<\/a>, citing an Israeli military official. It was the second attack on Isfahan, which was hit in the first 24 hours of the war as part of Israel\u2019s goal to destroy the Iranian nuclear program, the AP said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Force claimed it killed Saeed Izadi, a commander in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps responsible for dealing with Palestinian militants. The IDF said Izadi had been eliminated in the city of Qom following a \u201cprolonged intelligence-gathering effort.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cThe U.S. has been involved in the aggression since day one,\u201d said Araghchi, speaking in Istanbul, which is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":202828,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5311],"tags":[6505,6178,473,32,2817,774,837,839,2597,8536,461,49,978,659],"class_list":{"0":"post-202827","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-benjamin-netanyahu","9":"tag-conflict","10":"tag-defense","11":"tag-donald-trump","12":"tag-intelligence","13":"tag-iran","14":"tag-israel","15":"tag-middle-east","16":"tag-military","17":"tag-recep-tayyip-erdogan","18":"tag-turkey","19":"tag-united-states","20":"tag-us","21":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114722026795294225","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/202827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=202827"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/202827\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/202828"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=202827"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=202827"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=202827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
