The letter of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the Secretary General of the United Nations regarding the developments in Palestine

The right to legitimate defense is an inherent right that is clearly recognized by the United Nations Charter and international law. The Palestinian people, as a nation that has been unjustly deprived of the fundamental right to determine its own destiny and is subjected to attacks and violations of human rights and human dignity at any moment, undoubtedly has the right to defend itself and resist occupation and aggression. This is a right that the Palestinian nation does not need to obtain permission or orders from any other party to exercise it, and with the benefit of full independence and maturity, which is the product of eight decades of struggle and enduring the most severe sufferings and bitterness of life under occupation, they have now decided to when, where and how to attain it.
