Human rights reports from the US Crime Observatory, Israel: Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokeswoman. Tehran, Irena -. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Bakai criticized the latest report of the UN special reports on human rights in Iran, saying it whitewashes crimes committed by the United States and Israel. In a post on X on Friday, Bakay wrote: "Regardless of the political nature of the mandate imposed on the Human Rights Council by Britain, the use of the so-called special report on the situation of human rights in Iran to accuse Iran of crimes committed by the US and Israel amounts to nothing less than a deliberate attempt, aggression and side steps to whitewash. Such an approach is deeply misleading and very far-fetched."
