The Foreign Ministry denounced last night in a statement that “this is an act of war that adds to the long history of crimes by Netanyahu’s regime, whose machinery of destruction operates outside of any legality.”

The Venezuelan government demanded “the immediate cessation of all hostilities by Israel, which has turned its foreign policy into a permanent threat to peace in West Asia.” “We express our strongest solidarity with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini, President Masoud Pezeshkian, and the Iranian people in the face of this cowardly attack,” the statement said.

The Bolivarian Republic reiterated that there will be no peace without justice, and that it begins “by stopping Israel’s arms-fueled madness,” the genocide of the Palestinian people, and the Israeli war criminals, who have become the greatest threat to peace for humanity.
