Iraq announced today that it has formally complained to the UN about Israel‘s “violation of its airspace” over its strikes against Iran, calling it a “flagrant violation” of its sovereignty.
In a letter of protest to the UN secretary-general and the Security Council, Iraq condemned “the flagrant violation committed by the Zionist entity, whose aircraft violated Iraqi airspace and sovereignty by using Iraqi airspace to launch an attack against it Iran on October 26,” Iraqi government spokesman Basim Alawadi said in a statement.
Iraqi authorities will also contact the US, an ally of Israel, regarding “this violation”.
Israel struck military targets in Iran early Saturday. Iran’s military said Saturday that Israeli jets used Iraqi airspace, which is controlled by the US military, “to remotely launch a number of long-range missiles equipped with very light warheads.”
