“Iran’s national infrastructure is under attack. This time, a branch of my country’s oldest bank was bombed while full of employees,” Araghchi wrote in a post on his X account on Wednesday.
He said the bank’s employees were “laboring to ensure Iranians have food on the table ahead of our New Year” when the attack took place.
“Our Powerful Armed Forces will exact retribution for this crime,” the foreign minister added.
The United States and Israeli launched an unprovoked war on Iran on February 28, assassinating the former Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and top Iranian military commanders in the midst of Tehran-Washington negotiations.
Iran immediately launched retaliatory strikes against Israeli and American targets across the region using volleys of drones and missiles.
