Iran withdraws from US MoU after alleged military violations

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmail Baghaei, announced that Tehran no longer considers itself committed to the 14-point Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed with the United States last month. Baghaei stated that the US violated the agreement by escalating its military strike on the Islamic Republic, thereby altering Iran's position.

The Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding was based on a commitment for a commitment, and with the US's action to violate its commitments, Iran no longer considers itself committed to implementing it.

"The Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding was based on a commitment for a commitment, and with the US's action to violate its commitments, Iran no longer considers itself committed to implementing it," Baghaei said, according to a statement carried by Iranian state media, IRIB. He emphasized that Iran's retaliatory military actions were limited to self-defense and exclusively targeted US military assets.

Baghaei further accused the US and Israel of war crimes, alleging that their operations primarily targeted civilian centers and ordinary people. "We have only defended ourselves and have not attacked any targets other than US military bases and military equipment," he added.

The announcement comes amid heightened tensions between Iran and the United States following the collapse of the MoU. The agreement was intended to end hostilities and pave the way for further negotiations, particularly concerning Iran's nuclear program. The breakdown of the MoU has renewed conflict in West Asia, with both sides engaging in military actions. US Central Command reported that two US service members were killed and one remains missing in Jordan following Iranian retaliatory strikes on the Al-Azraq Air Base.

The US and the Zionist regime have mainly targeted civilian centres and ordinary people in their attacks, which is a clear example of a war crime.
