Sputnik/Alexander Scherbak/Pool via REUTERSIranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Friday that Israel should "stop killing innocent people", and that its actions in the Middle East were backed by the United States and the European Union. Pezeshkian was speaking to a Russian state TV reporter on the sidelines of an international meeting in Turkmenistan. Hezbollah is firing at Israel in support of its ally Hamas, which triggered Israel's ground offensive in Gaza following an Oct 7 attack on communities in southern Israel. "I would like to say to Israel: stop killing innocent people. Stop bombing residential buildings, people who have nothing anyway," said Pezeshkian, accusing Israel of violating every kind of international agreement.
