Event Summary

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar of India and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi held a phone conversation to discuss the evolving security situation in West Asia, bilateral relations, and regional issues. This diplomatic exchange comes amidst heightened tensions following US-Israeli joint military strikes on Iran on February 28, which resulted in the death of Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. Iran retaliated by targeting Israel and United States assets in several Gulf countries, causing disruptions in waterways and affecting international energy markets. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has issued a sharp warning to the United States, stating its readiness to employ unconventional methods and newly developed capabilities if tensions escalate further. Mohammad Hossein Ziyaeenia, Deputy Representative of Iran's Supreme Leader in India, emphasized that every country can play a role in de-escalating hostilities.
