Iran Urges UN Security Council to Hold Emergency Meeting over US-Israeli Threats

20 October, 2026 16:26

Iran’s Ambassador and Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Gholamhossein Darzi, has urged the UN Security Council to convene an emergency meeting and condemn threats by the United States and Israel against Iranian territory and critical infrastructure. Darzi made the appeal in a letter dated Monday addressed to UN Secretary-General António Guterres and the president of the Security Council.

The letter cited recent US media reports claiming that the White House and the US Department of War had prepared new military options involving potential attacks against Iran. These reportedly included the possible use of the GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB), widely known as the “Mother of All Bombs,” one of the largest conventional bombs in the US arsenal.

Darzi also referred to televised remarks by US President Donald Trump, who reportedly discussed the weapon and threatened further attacks against Iran. The Iranian diplomat called on the United Nations’ principal body responsible for international peace and security to address the threats, warning of the serious implications of potential military action against the country’s territory and vital infrastructure.
