Iran’s Attorney General announced that more than 210,000 legal complaints have been filed in domestic judicial bodies based on extensive documentation of crimes attributed to the US and Israeli regime in Iran.

Why it matters:

The announcement comes amid ongoing efforts by Iranian authorities to compile evidence, assess damages, and pursue international legal action following the recent 12‑day war, which caused significant human and material losses.

Driving the news:

The update was delivered during the eighth meeting dedicated to documenting wartime damages and preparing legal cases.

Attorney General Mohammad Movahedi said:

Iranian institutions have gathered “a large volume of evidence” related to violations.

Legal teams are simultaneously handling war‑related crimes and a high number of domestic unrest cases, which he described as “legally complex and heavy.”

What he's saying:

Movahedi emphasized the need to use “all available legal capacities” to defend Iran’s rights and said the country remains prepared for “new scenarios” from adversaries. He added that public awareness and international legal engagement are essential components of Iran’s strategy.

The big picture:

Iran maintains that it will pursue all domestic and international legal avenues to address hostile actions by the U.S. and Israeli regime. According to the Attorney General, the 210,000 complaints filed so far reflect the scale of the documentation effort underway.
