While Israel strives to minimize civilian casualties, Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah commit war crimes using civilians as human shields and targeting civilians. Israel has, as the Foreign Minister noted, a strong and independent civilian and military judiciary. These courts have not found that Israel committed any war crimes. We hope that, in her meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi this week, Foreign Minister Meinl-Reisinger raised the Iranian regime’s mass killing of its own people and its missile attacks on civilians in Israel and neighboring countries.
