Iran's UN ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani has said at least 1,332 Iranian civilians have been killed so far in US-Israel war on Iran, and thousands more had been wounded.
He also condemned US interference after President Donald Trump insisted that he should be involved in selecting the successor of slain supreme leader Ali Khamenei.
Iravani said that Trump's reported comments "constitute a clear violation of the principles of non-interference in the internal affairs of states and enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations."
"Iran is a sovereign and independent state. It does not accept and will never allow any foreign power to interfere in its internal affairs," Iravani told reporters in New York.
"The selection of Iran's leadership will take place strictly in accordance with our constitutional procedures and solely by the will of the Iranian people, without any foreign interference," he added.
