Iran's Permanent Mission to the UN shared a video on X detailing crimes committed by the Israeli occupation against Palestinian children.
The video was shared on Thursday, the fifth day of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, which has so far killed more than 1,100 people, destroyed entire neighborhoods, and targeted Gaza's civilian infrastructure.
“The Israeli apartheid perpetrates unspeakable crimes against the Palestinians, yet it shamelessly shifts the blame onto Palestinians for the war crimes it commits against Palestinian women and children," the mission said in its post on X.
"Don't be fooled by the bloodthirsty regime's narrative."

Iran's UN mission had earlier issued a statement on Monday, pinning the blame for what is currently happening in Palestine on the “longstanding denial of the Palestinian people’s legitimate right to self-determination,” as well as the Israeli aggression and desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque.

Iran commander warns US of interfering in Palestine
In a similar context, the General Commander of the Iranian Army, Brigadier General Abdolrahim Mousavi, said on Tuesday that the United States will accelerate its demise if it keeps pace with the Zionist entity.
In an exclusive statement to Al Mayadeen on the sidelines of the graduation of a new batch of Iranian armed forces officers, Mousavi emphasized the need for the United States to "act sensibly and allow justice to prevail, not to aid falsehood."
On his part, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi congratulated the Palestinian Resistance on the occasion of the victory of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, confirming Iran's support for the Palestinian people in their just defense.
Raisi also stated that the Zionist entity and its backers are responsible for regional security threats and must bear responsibility for that.
Similarly, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian warned that the escalation of Israeli occupation crimes will further complicate matters in Palestine and the region.
