“These attacks on fuel storage facilities amount to nothing less than intentional chemical warfare against the Iranian citizens,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said in a post on his official X account on Sunday.
“By targeting fuel depots, the aggressors are releasing hazardous materials and toxic substances into the air, poisoning civilians, devastating the environment, and endangering lives on a massive scale,” Baqaei said.
“The consequences of this environmental and humanitarian catastrophe will not be confined within Iran’s borders,” he added.
