In two separate phone calls, Araghchi discussed the latest developments in the West Asia region as well as the security and economic consequences of the U.S. and Israeli "aggression" with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, according to statements released by the Iranian Foreign Ministry.

Araghchi elaborated on the "crimes" committed by the United States and Israel against Iran's people over the past 37 days, including their attacks on Iranian industrial and production infrastructure, hospitals, schools, residential areas as well as nuclear centers and facilities.

He urged all influential parties at the UN Security Council to adopt responsible approaches that are based on international law.

He highlighted the firm determination of Iranian people and armed forces to powerfully defend Iran's national interests and security, warning about the consequences of the U.S. and Israeli "aggression" for the stability and security in the region and the world.

Lavrov, for his part, stressed the need for stopping the "illegal" attacks against civilian targets, especially the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant in southern Iran, calling for grasping every opportunity to prevent the expansion of the conflict's scopes.

The Indian foreign minister highlighted the importance of efforts to restore stability and security to the region, expressing his country's support for the ongoing efforts at the regional and international levels to stop the war.

The phone calls came amid heightened regional tensions following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran starting on Feb. 28, to which Iran and its regional allies responded with attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests across the Middle East.
