More than 30 Iranian universities have been bombed by the US and Israel since the beginning of the war, apart from hundreds of schools, medical facilities, and cultural sites, which amount to war crimes.

The US joined the 12-day long Israeli aggression against Iran in June, targeting three of its nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan

Iran rejected a resolution in the IAEA adopted despite objections from Russia and China on Thursday. It demands the inspection of all Iranian nuclear sites, including those attacked by the US and Israel in June.

Former Venezuelan diplomat Carlos Ron told Peoples Dispatch that the sole purpose of sanctions is “to inflict pain or suffering onto the population”

Russia and China, also signatories of the JCPOA, accused the UK, France, and Germany of violating the provisions of the nuclear deal by using threats of sanctions instead of approaching the issue diplomatically.

Months after facing Israeli and US aggression, Iran presented a resolution in the IAEA general conference demanding the prohibition of attacks or threats of attacks on nuclear sites under its safeguard.

After halting cooperation with it for over two months, Iran signed a deal with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) earlier this month to allow it conditional and limited access to its nuclear sites.

Iran had previously accused IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi of collaborating with the US and Israel, undermining the impartiality of the UN agency and providing cover for the Israeli-US attacks on its nuclear sites.

CODEPINK activists argue that Rafael Grossi should resign as IAEA Director before he further undermines nuclear non-proliferation and drags the world any closer to nuclear war.
