Araghchi: Iran demonstrated the utmost restraint in the face of repeated and fundamental violations and made extensive efforts to restore balance and preserve the agreement.
In his letter, Araghchi stated: The E3 failed to fulfill their obligations and instead imposed additional illegal sanctions on Iranian individuals and institutions.

Araghchi: UN Security Council Resolution 2231 has expired and fully ceased to be in effect as of today, in accordance with its explicit provisions.

Concurrently, Israeli occupation forces stormed the city of al-Khalil and the town of Beit Ummar in the West Bank.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent confirmed that Israeli settlers attacked residents of the town of Huwara, south of Nablus, and opened fire on Palestinian homes.

Additionally, the Ministry of Health announced on Saturday evening the death of 19-year-old Palestinian youth Qassam Farouk Mohammad Haj Ahmad, who succumbed to critical injuries sustained from Israeli gunfire to the head about a week ago in Tulkarm.

In 2020, 24 Palestinians were killed by settlers or the IOF. It increased by four-fold in 2021 reaching 84. In 2022, the number of Palestinians killed was 154, increasing to 277 in 2023 as of October 20.
