Tehran on Thursday strongly condemned a US air strike on Baghdad that killed a pro-Iranian commander, saying it was a violation of neighbouring Iraq’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

A statement from Iran’s foreign ministry said its spokesman Nasser Kanani “considered the continuation of such adventurism by America as a threat to regional and international peace and security”.
