PYONGYANG, March 1 (Xinhua) -- The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Sunday condemned the United States and Israel for their military attacks against Iran, state media said.

In a press statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency, a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry said the military actions are "an illegal act of aggression and the most despicable form of violation of sovereignty," and "can never be tolerated in any case."

The spokesperson said the United States and Israel elevated domestic law above international law and did not hesitate to abuse their military power in pursuit of selfish and hegemonic ambitions. ■
