40 missiles were launched in the 20th wave of attacks on Israel, including the first use of third-generation multiple-warhead Kheibar Shekan missiles, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said Sunday.

"The missiles used had maneuverable warheads during descent, were guided until the moment of impact, and were equipped with various types of high-explosive and destructive warheads," IRGC said in a statement.

Major portions of Iran’s military capabilities remain unused, the IRGC also added, signaling further escalation potential.

Iran has legal right to exit NPT after US strikes, MP says

Jun 22, 2025, 08:06 GMT+1

Iran may legally withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) following US strikes on its nuclear sites, an Iranian lawmaker said Sunday.

The attacks on Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan constitute a “clear violation of international obligations,” Abbas Golroo, head of parliament’s foreign relations committee said, cited Article 10 of the NPT as grounds for exit.

The Islamic Republic would explore legal and international options in response, he added.

Under Article 10, a party may withdraw if it determines its supreme interests are jeopardized, with three months’ notice to other treaty members.

"Ali Khamenei and his crumbling terrorist regime have failed the nation,” he wrote on X.

“For the sake of the Iranian people, respond by stepping down,” he added, calling for a new chapter of peace and prosperity.

“The only sure way to achieve peace is for this regime to now end.”

Iran calls US strike on nuclear sites ‘brutal aggression’

Jun 22, 2025, 07:42 GMT+1

The US military strike on its nuclear facilities was a violation of the UN Charter and international law, Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Sunday.

The statement came hours after the US bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, its first direct involvement in the conflict since Israel began its military campaign.

“This brutal military aggression… demonstrates the United States’ deep hostility toward the peace-seeking and independence-loving people of Iran,” the ministry said.

It accused Washington of colluding with Israel and held the US fully responsible for the consequences.

"Iran reserves the right to defend its national security and sovereignty with full force," the statement said, warning that silence from international bodies would endanger global security.
