Iran says the US’s assassination of senior Iranian anti-terror commander, Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, clearly exemplifies “state terrorism,” cautioning the UN against any understatement of the atrocity.
Esmaeil Baghaei Hamaneh, Iran’s permanent ambassador to the UN office in Geneva, made the remarks on Thursday, addressing the 47th session of the United Nations’ Human Rights Council.
He was addressing a report last year by Agnes Callamard, the UN special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, about the assassination, that sufficed to describe it as “arbitrary killing.”

The Defense and army spokesperson, Brig Flavia Byekwaso, told Daily Monitor that she wasn’t aware of the incident and could not, therefore, comment.
Summary
Our view: We will not tire to call out abusers of journalists rights and demand that justice be done. Hopefully, the military can do the same, be seen to aggressively put its deviant officers in line until gaps that hinder a credible partnership are closed.
