Xinhua News Agency, Tehran, June 27th - The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the 27th condemning the US military's airstrikes on multiple locations along the southern coast of Iran, stating that it violates the memorandum of understanding reached between the two parties earlier and that Iran will uphold national sovereignty and security in accordance with international law. The statement also mentioned that Israel "coordinated with the United States" to attack Lebanon, also violating the relevant provisions of the Iran-US memorandum of understanding. The statement said that Iran will do everything to defend national sovereignty, security, and national interests. Defensive strikes have been carried out by the Iranian armed forces against US-related targets. The consequences of this situation will be borne by the United States and its accomplices.
