Dorothy Shea, the US Deputy Ambassador to the UN, mistakenly said, “The Israeli government has also spread chaos, terrorism, and suffering,” before quickly correcting herself to say, “Iran’s government has also spread chaos, terrorism, and suffering.” Shea emphasized that Iran was ideologically and materially behind Hamas’ deadly attack on Israel in October 2023. She also highlighted that Iran had launched hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel in two separate assaults last year.
