Briefings
In September 2026, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian addressed the UN General Assembly to condemn US President Donald Trump's speech, framing it as an attack on Iranian civilians. The Iranian delegation highlighted images of civilian casualties resulting from US and Israeli military operations, asserting that these events prove the impact of foreign intervention. During the session, the US delegation exited the assembly hall, while France 24 reported on the incident. The evidence indicates a direct diplomatic confrontation where Iran used visual evidence of harm to counter US rhetoric, though the specific nature of the strikes and the extent of civilian casualties remain unverified by the report.
