A senior Iranian diplomat has pushed back against remarks made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his address to the UN General Assembly, according to Iran's official IRNA news agency.
Nasser Asadi, the third counsellor at the Islamic Republic of Iran's permanent mission to the United Nations, delivered Iran's response to Netanyahu's UNGA remarks, IRNA reported.
The report did not detail the specific content of Asadi's response or the exact claims he addressed, and IRNA did not immediately publish a full transcript of his remarks.
The exchange adds to a series of pointed statements traded between Iranian and Israeli officials at the UN General Assembly this year, reflecting the continued diplomatic friction between Tehran and Tel Aviv that has repeatedly surfaced at UN proceedings.
