TEHRAN, Nov. 28 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, in a message to the International Criminal Court (ICC), called for the trial of the Israeli regime's officials.

Referring to the barbaric bombing of Gaza and ground invasion by the Zionist regime, Amir-Abdollahian considered the Zionists' actions as examples of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.

The top Iranian diplomat considered the support of some countries to the Zionist usurper regime as the cause of the regime's continued brutality and violence. 

He also called on the International Criminal Court to adhere to its legal obligations and fulfill its duties over prosecuting the perpetrators of these crimes.

Now is the time for the ICC to decide whether it wants to resist the pressure of some powers, or allow the brutalities committed by the occupying regime to remain unpunished, he added.

Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs continues its diplomatic, international, and legal activities in line with the support of the oppressed people of Palestine.
