During his visit to Tehran, UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for Yemen, Hans Grundberg met with Iran's Foreign Minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi.

In the meeting, Araghchi reaffirmed the Islamic Republic of Iran’s support for the role and efforts of the United Nations in aiding the improvement of the situation in Yemen. 

He condemned the repeated airstrikes by the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Zionist regime on Yemen’s infrastructure, describing these attacks as blatant violations of Yemen’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty, as well as grave breaches of international law and the United Nations Charter.

Araghchi emphasized that the use of force and lawlessness by the U.S. and the U.K., effectively serving to support the Zionist regime’s genocide in Gaza, represents an unprecedented threat to regional peace and security, with consequences affecting all nations in the region. 

The UN Special Envoy for Yemen, in turn, expressed gratitude for the Islamic Republic of Iran’s stance and commitment to stability and security in the region, particularly in Yemen. He provided a briefing on his recent visit to Sana’a and outlined the United Nations’ actions and initiatives aimed at establishing peace and stability in Yemen.
