I.R.IRAN Mission to UN, NY

Iran is not a party to the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Therefore, it is not bound by its treaty-based provisions.

As the main coastal State within whose territorial sea the Strait of Hormuz lies, Iran has the legitimate and legal right to take necessary and proportionate measures to address emerging security threats, ensure safe navigation, and prevent the misuse of the Strait of Hormuz for hostile or military purposes.

Any disruption to maritime transport in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, and its consequences, lie with the U.S., whose unlawful actions endanger international navigation.

Lasting stability and security in the Persian Gulf and the wider region can only be achieved through a durable and permanent cessation of aggression against Iran, supplemented by credible guarantees of non-recurrence, and full respect for the legitimate sovereign rights and interests of Iran.

ATHENS, April 28 (Xinhua) -- Five people were injured in a series of shooting incidents in the Greek capital of Athens on Tuesday, with an 89-year-old male suspect at large, said Greek national broadcaster ERT.

The first shooting occurred shortly before 10:00 a.m. local time (0700 GMT) in the Petralona area in southwestern Athens. The suspect reportedly entered the fourth floor of a social security institution building and opened fire with a shotgun. One employee sustained minor injuries to the leg and was rushed to a central Athens hospital in no life-threatening condition.

The suspect later allegedly moved to the vicinity of the Magistrates' Court in central Athens. There he went up to the fourth floor of a building and opened fire, injuring four more people. All injuries were reported to be minor. The shooter abandoned the shotgun at the scene before fleeing.
