Condemning the Iranian strikes on April 13 and 14, Parliament voices serious concern over the escalation and threat to regional security. MEPs reiterate their full support for the security of the State of Israel and its citizens and condemn the simultaneous rocket launches carried out by Iran’s proxies Hezbollah in Lebanon and Houthi rebels in Yemen against the Golan Heights and Israeli territory before and during the Iranian attack.

At the same time, they deplore the attack on the Iranian consulate in the Syrian capital Damascus on 1 April, which is widely attributed to Israel. The resolution recalls the importance of the principle of the inviolability of diplomatic and consular premises, which must be respected in all cases under international law.

With Iran persistently failing to comply with its legal safeguard obligations under its nuclear deal - formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) - MEPs urge the Iranian authorities to immediately abide by these requirements and address all related outstanding issues. They also condemn Iran’s use of hostage diplomacy - keeping foreign nationals jailed as bargaining chips - and urge the EU to launch a strategy to counter it with a dedicated task force to better assist detainees’ families and effectively prevent further hostage-taking.

The resolution finally welcomes the Council’s decision to launch the EU Naval Force Operation ASPIDES to safeguard freedom of navigation off the coast of Yemen, while calling on Iran and entities under its control to ensure the release and safe return of captured European crewmembers taken from vessels passing in the region.

The resolution was adopted by 357 votes in favour, 20 against and 58 abstentions.
