The Jerusalem Post reports: Iran on Saturday demanded that all arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia be halted immediately based on “humanitarian law” during a meeting at the United Nations, according to Iranian state news agency PressTV.

“We are deeply concerned about the destabilizing repercussions of the continual entry and export of such weaponry into the region, especially into Saudi Arabia and the Zionist regime of Israel,” said Iran’s Deputy permanent representative at the UN Gholam-Hossein Dehqani.

Dehqani added that Israel was “engaged in aggression and violation against other countries and in flouting their commitments to international humanitarian laws.”
