The destruction of the Holy Quran by settlers affiliated with the Zionist authority in the West Bank was met with vehement condemnation by a spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
On Friday, Nasser Kanaani sent out a tweet in response to an attack by Israeli settlers on the hamlet of Urif, which is located south of Nablus in the northern part of the West Bank.
“The barbaric raid by Zionists on mosques and their desecration of the Holy Quran, the destruction of homes, and the daily killing of children, women, and defenseless Palestinians shows this fake regime does not have any red lines in insulting religious sanctities and violating human rights,” the spokesman said.
“The Holy Quran was desecrated.” “The daily killing of children, women, and defenseless Palestinians shows this fake regime does not have any red lines.”
“The supportive silence of Western governments will only embolden the Zionists to continue their atrocities,” he continued, according to the website of the Foreign Ministry in Iran.
The Israeli assailants also broke into a nearby mosque on Friday and destroyed it. They then tore the pages out of a copy of the Quran and threw it out onto the street after doing so.
Since the beginning of the week, over a dozen Palestinians have been killed as a result of violence that was either instigated by the Israeli military or by armed Israeli settlers.
One Palestinian guy was one of the victims; he was slain on Wednesday when hundreds of settlers went on a rampage throughout the town of Turmus Ayya, which is located in the north-central West Bank.
