Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei on Thursday condemned the United States' history of deliberately targeting civilians. He claimed that Qatar had confirmed Iranian attacks were aimed at US military installations. Qatar's sole exception was an attack on a gas facility on March 18, but Baqaei stressed these facilities were aiding US aggression against Iran.
He described Iran's actions as starkly contrasting with Washington's long record of attacks on civilian targets like schools, hospitals, and residential neighborhoods. Baqaei emphasized the stark difference between a nation adhering to moral and humanitarian principles even under distress and warmongering rulers devoid of rule of law or ethics.
Qatar's government confirmed in an ITU document that Iran's defensive strikes against American forces on its soil were indeed directed at US military facilities, stating no civilian areas were targeted.
