Israel lauds UN decision to impose fresh sanctions on Iran
None
"Israel commends this important decision, which sends an unequivocal message saying that the international community cannot accept Iran's defiant nuclear plans," Israel's Foreign Ministry said after the Security Council decided to impose a third round of sanctions on the Islamic Republic.
"Iran, whose policy threatens global peace and stability and whose leaders openly threaten Israel, continues to ignore the international community's demands and is consistently violating previous Security Council decisions," the ministry said in a statement. (Neta Sela and Roee Nahmias)
