OHCHR expressed concern about Israeli strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) is concerned about Israeli attacks on Iran's energy infrastructure. These attacks were not carried out solely for military purposes, the official representative of the department, Ravina Shamdasani, said on March 10.

"We are concerned about the impact of these strikes on the civilian population's right to health, as well as their impact on the environment," RIA Novosti quoted Shamdasani as saying.

According to her, the predicted impact of these strikes on the population and the environment raises serious questions about whether obligations under international humanitarian law in terms of proportionality and precautionary measures have been respected. Shamdasani also did not rule out that Israel could strike Iran's energy infrastructure not only for military purposes.
