The Iran Project : Iran says the United Nations Security Council must impose sanctions on Israel over its use of banned chemical weapons against “defenseless people” in Palestine and Lebanon.

According to The Iran Project, Kazem Gharibabadi, who serves as head of the Iranian Judiciary’s High Council for Human Rights, made the request during his speech at the 29th Session of the Conference of the States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CSP-29) held in The Hague on Wednesday.

“The Zionist regime, with unconditional support from certain Western countries, particularly the United States, continues its crimes in Palestine and Lebanon while unfortunately enjoying impunity," he said.

“The United Nations Security Council must take action under Chapter VII of the UN Charter to impose effective sanctions against the Zionist regime, and all countries should refrain from any economic, military, or arms cooperation with this regime.”

The occupying regime has in numerous occasions used banned white phosphorus as well as prohibited bombs containing depleted uranium against the people in Lebanon and the besieged Gaza Strip.

“We condemn the Zionist regime's use of chemical weapons and other hazardous materials, including white phosphorus and depleted uranium, against the defenseless people of Palestine and Lebanon," Gharibabadi said. 

“We call on the director-general of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to conduct a comprehensive investigation into this matter and take necessary measures to protect the victims,” Gharibabadi stated.
