Iran accuses US of spreading disinformation about Iranian terrorism

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei accused the US on Wednesday of conducting a “coordinated disinformation campaign” to portray itself as a victim of “terrorism”.

In a post on X, Baghaei said Washington committed "acts of state terrorism" by assassinating Iranian leaders and meanwhile "expects the world to ignore its own long record of aggression and terrorism, and to accept unsubstantiated claims of a 'terror plot'."

"However, no amount of media frenzy can rewrite history, erase responsibility, or conceal the identity of those truly responsible for aggression, terrorism, and war crimes," he added.

In its joint aggression against Iran alongside the Israeli regime, the United States committed not only abhorrent war crimes but also grave acts of state terrorism through the cowardly assassination of Iranian officials and scientists.
