Iranian president accuses Israel of “genocide”

As Israel continues striking targets in Gaza, the president of Iran has accused Israel of comitting “genocide”, writes BBC.

Ebrahim Raisi also said the siege on Gaza - where water, electricity and fuel has been cut off - breaks all international treaties.

Iran is known to fund and equip Hamas in Gaza. But on Tuesday, Iran’s supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said his country was not behind the weekend’s deadly attacks on Israel.

He did, however, said he “kissed the hand” of those who planned the attacks.
