Addressing the White House, Trump said on Saturday (US local time) that the US had carried out “precise and large-scale” attacks on Iran. He warned that if peace is not maintained, the US will take more stringent steps. At the same time, Iran strongly criticized these attacks, calling them against international law, and reiterated its resolve to continue its nuclear program.

A statement issued by AEOI confirmed that early on Sunday morning, Iran’s nuclear sites were “subjected to savage aggression–an act in violation of international laws, particularly the NPT.” “This action, which violates international regulations, unfortunately took place under the indifference and even complicity of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA),” it said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has praised the military action led by Trump. He said that Trump’s bold step of targeting Iranian nuclear sites can change the course of history. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran reached its ninth day on Saturday, and now the US has also started supporting Israel. At the same time, India is continuously making efforts to safely evacuate its citizens trapped in Iran and several flights have been planned for this purpose.
