Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi speaks on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting in Tehran on Wednesday, October 30, 2024.
According to The Iran Project, speaking to reporters in Tehran on Wednesday, Abbas Araqchi said he had been assured by the highest-ranking Iraqi officials, during a visit to Baghdad before the Israeli regime’s attack, that the Arab country would not allow its soil or airspace to be used against Iran.

“There are reports suggesting that Iraq’s airspace has been employed (for attacking Iran). We are in contact with our friends in the Iraqi government to make them lodge a complaint at international courts,” he stated.

Denouncing the presence of the US air force in the region, Araqchi said Iran has obtained information indicating that the Zionist regime’s fighter jets had flown through a channel provided by the American forces to carry out the operation against Iran.

“We have filed our complaint at the United Nations and other international organizations,” the foreign minister added.
