In a social media post, Baghaei questioned, “For what crime are innocent children being killed?”

He said that from Gaza and the West Bank to Beirut, Minab, Lamerd, Tehran, and other parts of the world, the reality remains the same wherever children have been killed in US and Israeli bombings or missile attacks.

Baghaei stated that no military objective, political interest, or security justification can ever legitimize the killing of children.

He emphasized that children are neither parties to war nor instruments of conflict, but represent the living conscience of humanity.

The Iranian spokesperson added that every child killed or permanently injured is a loss to humanity and a blow to shared human values.
