Iran’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Majid Takht-Ravanchi denounced that during 2021, the Tel Aviv regime killed almost more than 340 Palestinians, included 86 children, the highest number of minors since 2014.

Takht-Ravanchi also stated that the occupation forces demolished 894 Palestinian-owned structures and as a result of which, more than 1,100 people had to leave their homes.

The situation in the occupied territories, he added, continues to deteriorate, which poses, he emphasized, a threat to peace and security in the Middle East.

One of the main reasons for such a dramatic scenario, he said, is the inaction of the UN Security Council, because of which Israel continues to commit crimes against the oppressed people of Palestine.
