The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine strongly condemns the missile attack on the city of Erbil in northern Iraq, launched on January 15 by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

We offer our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and wish a speedy recovery to all those who were injured.

Ukraine supports the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of the Republic of Iraq.

Such aggressive actions of the Islamic Republic of Iran pose a serious threat to regional security and stability, as well as flagrantly violate the norms of international law.

Iran must abandon its destructive actions in the world. Tehran must stop contributing to the Russian Federation’s war of aggression against Ukraine by supplying Moscow with weapons and ammunition.
