Iran launched a retaliatory attack against Israel on June 22, firing 40 missiles that left over 80 people injured. The escalation comes after U.S. military strikes targeted multiple Iranian nuclear sites. At a press conference in Istanbul, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that ​​"the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty failed to protect Iran,"​​ accusing Israel and the U.S. of ​​"crossing a major red line"​​ by attacking nuclear facilities. The international community has called for restraint to prevent further escalation. ​​Stay with CGTN for the latest updates.
