(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 6. The repeated violations of the ceasefire by the U.S. don't contribute to reducing tensions and returning to stability, the statement of the Iranian Foreign Ministry says, Trend reports.

According to the statement, last night's shelling of Iranian coastal surveillance radar facilities on the Sirik and Qeshm islands, which protect the safety of ships in international waters and Iran's borders, is considered a clear violation of the April 8 ceasefire agreement, and Iran strongly condemns the military attack against its territorial integrity and sovereignty.

The statement noted that the attacks by the U.S. endanger the stability of the region, and all responsibility will lie with the other side.

"Iran, in accordance with the UN Charter, states that it has the right to self-defense and will use all means to protect its sovereignty and national interests. Iran calls on regional countries to adhere to the norms of international law and refrain from creating conditions for other parties to use their territories against Iran and to adhere to the principle of good neighborliness," the statement said.
