TEHRAN: Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said Monday that US President Donald Trump’s threats to strike power plants and bridges in Iran could amount to war crimes.

“The American president, as the highest official of his country, has publicly threatened to commit war crimes,” Gharibabadi said in a post on X, citing provisions of international law that could be breached.
