FM Zarif marks anniversary of bombings of Andimeshk by Saddam

Tehran (ISNA) – On the anniversary of Andimeshk bombings by Saddam, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif posted a tweet on his official account.

“Today in 1986: Iraqi planes—provided to Saddam through $75b Saudi financing—bombed an Iranian city for 105 mins. It was the longest aerial assault since WWII, killing & injuring over 1000 civilians. One reason we feel for Yemeni civilians targeted by the latest Saudi coalition”.
