Iran's foreign ministry said on Wednesday that the United States had damaged the ongoing international diplomatic effort to end the war, after more U.S. strikes on targets in southern Iran.
"Unfortunately, the United States is damaging this diplomatic process through the contradictory messages it sends, its repeated shifts in positions and demands, and, worst of all, through repeated violations of the cease-fire," foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said, in a video message carried by Iranian media.
"Any diplomatic process is damaged by the use of force and by resorting to unlawful actions on the ground."
