Single source · 2026-10-30 04:41 UTC

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei (also spelled Baqaei), in a post on X relayed by Tasnim, ME Observer and Middle East Eye, says the UN Special Rapporteur on human rights in Iran is misleading or whitewashing US and Israeli military actions by blaming Iran for their consequences. ME Observer's relay adds that Baghaei says the UK imposed the post on the Human Rights Council and calls the portrayal whitewashing a crime; the other relays do not include that detail.
