Iran’s president has condemned the severe environmental destruction wrought by ongoing conflicts in the region, highlighting how warfare exacerbates pollution, deforestation, and habitat loss. His remarks underscore the long-term human and ecological toll of instability, where battles and military operations leave behind toxic waste, displaced wildlife, and degraded landscapes. The statement follows growing international concern over the intersection of war and environmental degradation in conflict zones. Critics argue that such damage often goes unaddressed amid priorities focused on humanitarian crises and ceasefire negotiations.
