Tehran, IRNA -- Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the events of the recent 12-day war will be comprehensively documented both legally and historically by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Speaking to IRNA, Araghchi explained that legal documentation is essential to support potential complaints before international bodies regarding damages caused by the Israeli-imposed war.

He noted that this responsibility primarily lies with the Presidential Legal Department, while the Foreign Ministry's legal division is also assisting to ensure the process is carried out accurately and thoroughly.

Araghchi added that historical documentation is equally important to preserve an authentic narrative of the war.

He said teams within the Foreign Ministry have been tasked with collecting accounts of the war, which will be compiled into a written record to be published in due course.

Israel launched the large-scale assaults against Iran on June 13. Washington also joined the Israeli war and bombed three of Iran's main nuclear facilities on the pretext of preventing Iran from what it claimed to be developing nuclear weapons. The war was halted on June 24 after Israel was forced to cease its aggression unilaterally.

The minister also highlighted the role of cinema in conveying the truth of the war to global audiences.

"Sometimes one film can speak as much as several books and years of storytelling," he said, lamenting that Western powers, particularly the Zionists, would certainly produce numerous films and series to promote their own narrative on the war.
