JAKARTA - Iran has thanked Malaysia for its support during the 12 days of war against Israel since June 13.

Iranian Ambassador to Malaysia Valiollah Mohammadi Nasrabadi praised Malaysia's firm stance on Israel's actions, which violated international law.

"I would like to thank all of them (Matrians). Of course, we are coordinating with the Malaysian government," he said during a press conference at the Iranian Embassy, quoted from Bernama, Sunday, June 29.

He assured Iran after a ceasefire with Israel was in a safe condition if Malaysians wanted to visit.

Recently, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim held talks to explore cooperation in regional peace, particularly in the Middle East and Persian Gulf.

Valiollah then highlighted the role of Malaysia he considered influential in the OIC and UN, urging even stronger global efforts to prevent further Israeli aggression.

Valiollah also expressed Iran's interest in strengthening relations with ASEAN, viewing the bloc as a friendly partner.

As is known, tensions escalated after Israeli airstrikes against three Iranian nuclear facilities.

Iran then responded by carrying out airstrikes on Israel.

The ceasefire was then announced by US President Donald Trump on June 24.
