In a strongly worded and emotionally resonant message, the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in New Delhi has extended its deepest gratitude to the people of India for expressing solidarity with the Iranian nation amid its recent military conflict with Israel and the United States. The Iranian embassy's statement, released on June 25, 2025, celebrates the moral and diplomatic support India extended during the escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, culminating in the declaration, "Jai Iran — Jai Hind."

The embassy hailed the "noble and freedom-loving people of India" — including citizens, political parties, Members of Parliament, NGOs, religious and spiritual leaders, media professionals, university professors, and social activists — for "standing firmly and vocally with Iran" during a period the Islamic Republic characterized as brutal military aggression by the Zionist regime (Israel) and the United States.

This public appreciation comes in the wake of a 12-day Iran-Israel war, which began on June 13, 2025, and rapidly escalated to include cyberattacks, missile strikes, and targeted assassinations. The conflict started after Israel launched coordinated strikes on Iran's nuclear and military sites, stating that Tehran was close to building atomic weapons, a claim Iran denies, reiterating its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.

According to the statement, the Iranian Embassy praised various sections of Indian society for their "messages of solidarity, moral support, public statements, and peace-oriented gatherings". The embassy stated, “These gestures clearly reflect the awakened conscience of nations and their commitment to justice and the principles of international law.”

The Iranian authorities underlined that their resistance was not only about protecting national sovereignty but also about opposing violations of the UN Charter and humanitarian values. “The steadfastness of the Iranian people was a symbol of resistance against grave violations of the United Nations Charter and humanitarian principles,” said the statement, highlighting Iran’s emphasis on global legality and peace.

The embassy emphasized that the Islamic Republic has always stood for upholding international law and resisting expansionist agendas, a reference to what it considers the aggressive military postures of both Israel and the United States. “We firmly believe that the unity and solidarity of nations serve as a powerful bulwark against war, violence, and injustice,” the statement added.

India’s role during the crisis, although measured in official diplomatic channels, gained visibility through public solidarity movements, peace marches, and strong media and civil society reactions. Many Indian intellectuals, NGOs, and grassroots activists publicly supported Iran’s right to defend its sovereignty and called for an end to unilateral military interventions.

The embassy’s message declared that such solidarity is not only a political alignment but a reflection of shared civilizational and cultural ties between India and Iran, two nations bound by centuries of historical, spiritual, and regional cooperation. “This solidarity — rooted in the longstanding cultural, civilizational, and human ties between our two nations — will further strengthen the cause of peace, stability, and global justice,” the statement said.

Meanwhile, the conflict between Iran and Israel, which saw hundreds of missile exchanges and widespread destruction of critical infrastructure, came to an end after a ceasefire was brokered and announced by U.S. President Donald Trump late Monday night. The ceasefire took immediate effect after nearly two weeks of fighting that risked spilling over into a larger Middle Eastern war.

The hostilities were marked by intensive airstrikes, long-range missile exchanges, cyber warfare, and the targeted destruction of Iran’s key nuclear installations. Israel maintained that Iran's nuclear ambition poses a direct threat, while Iran insists its atomic program is strictly for peaceful energy and scientific purposes.

The aftermath of the conflict has left the region shaken, with severe humanitarian crises reported in parts of Iran, and significant civilian casualties. The international community, including the United Nations and European Union, has called for an independent investigation into the attacks, while countries like India maintained a balanced but peace-oriented stance, calling for restraint and dialogue.

Iran's acknowledgment of India's solidarity could signal a deepening of strategic and civilizational ties between New Delhi and Tehran. Although India has historically maintained strong relations with Israel, it has also valued its long-standing partnership with Iran, particularly in energy cooperation, regional security, and infrastructure projects like Chabahar Port.

Iran’s use of the phrase "Jai Iran — Jai Hind" — echoing India's nationalistic slogan "Jai Hind" — is symbolic of a diplomatic warmth and acknowledgment of moral support that goes beyond government-level engagement. It signifies a broader people-to-people and cultural alignment in moments of geopolitical crisis.

Analysts believe this public messaging by the Iranian Embassy in India is also aimed at amplifying global support and delegitimizing the Israeli military actions, which Tehran describes as illegal under international law. The support from Indian civil society and institutions could be used as diplomatic capital by Iran in future international negotiations or UN forums.

With global attention now on post-ceasefire diplomacy, the world watches how India navigates its delicate diplomatic balancing act between its defence and technology ties with Israel and its strategic energy and regional connectivity interests with Iran.

The Iranian message closes with a firm belief that this crisis has opened a new chapter in global solidarity, stating, “Undoubtedly, this solidarity will further strengthen the cause of peace, stability, and global justice. Jai Iran — Jai Hind.”

In conclusion, Iran's public acknowledgment of Indian support during the Israel conflict underscores the growing relevance of civil society diplomacy, the impact of global public opinion in conflict resolution, and the delicate foreign policy dynamics India must now navigate in the shifting sands of Middle Eastern geopolitics. As the region inches toward uncertain calm, voices of peace and solidarity like India's will continue to shape the narrative in favour of justice, law, and peaceful coexistence.
