Iran has increased the official death toll for his 12-day war with Israel, with official media reporting that 935 people in the country were killed on the basis of the latest forensic data.

Among the dead were 38 children and 132 women, said Asghar Jahangir, a spokesperson for the Iranian judiciary.

Iran also criticized the comments of US President Donald Trump about possibly again striking Iran and his shifting attitude on whether or not to increase economic sanctions.

Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the comments were “games” and were not aimed at solving the problems between the two countries.

“This [statements by Trump] Must be viewed more in the context of psychological and media ladies than as a serious expression in favor of dialogue or problem solution, “he said.

Mr. Trump said that he did not speak to Iran and did not offer the country ‘something’ and repeated his claim that the United States had completely destroyed the nuclear facilities of Tehran.

The death toll was a strong increase in an earlier Iranian Ministry of Health of 610 killed in Iran before a ceasefire -the fires came into effect on Tuesday last week.

Baghaei said that “the aggression of Israel’s aggression had led to many war crimes”.

He said that Iran would transfer evidence to international organizations that he said should be accountable for Israel.

“The Zionist regime [Israel] Action has been carried out for no reason or justification, so we do not believe in separating military and citizens [victims]”He said during his last press conference.

He said that a “martyr or destroyed building is an example of war crimes”.

Iran will not guarantee the safety of nuclear inspectors

At the end of last week, a hardline Iranian newspaper said that the Boss Rafael Grossi of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) should be tried as an Israeli agent.

Mr Grossi did not respond to the newspaper, but said that his top priority ensured that IAEA inspectors could return to nuclear sites in Iran as quickly as possible.

Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr Baghaei, said that Iran could not be expected to guarantee the safety of IAEA inspectors.

“How can they expect that we guarantee the safety and security of the office inspectors when the peaceful nuclear facilities of Iran were attacked a few days ago?” he said.

Iran’s ambassador in the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani, denied that there was some threat to Mr Grossi.

But Iran has increasingly criticized him and threatened to stop cooperation with the IAEA, which Tehran blames Tehran for a justification for the bombing of Israel.

The president of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, told French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday in a phone call that had caused the “double standards” of the IAEA problems for regional and global security, Iranian state media reported.

“The position of the Iranian government, the parliament and people is that the IAEA director has not acted impartially with regard to the nuclear file of our country,” quoting Mr Pezeshkian.

“This behavior is in no way acceptable to us.“

Minister of Foreign Affairs Abbas Araqchi said that Mr Grossi was not welcome in Iran, who had carried out “malignant action” and played a “regrettable role”.

Great -Britain, France and Germany have denounced threats against the UN nuclear watchdog.

“France, Germany and the United Kingdom condemn the threats against the director -general of the IAEA Rafael Grossi and repeat our full support to the agency and the DG in the implementation of their mandate,” said a statement from the foreign ministries of the three countries.

“We call on the Iranian authorities to refrain from stepping to stop collaboration with the IAEA.”
