RNA - "The Iranian diplomats kidnapped in Lebanon in 1982 are in the Zionist regime’s prisons and there is no evidence proving that they have been killed," Amir Abdollahian wrote on his Telegram account on Tuesday.

 

The top advisor said that the UN and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) should seriously boost their efforts to determine the fates of the kidnapped Iranian diplomats.

 

Amir Abdollahian said that the Iranian parliament will soon begin new measures in line with attempts to determine the fates of the diplomats.

 

On July 4, 1982, Ahmad Motavasselian, Mohsen Moussavi and Taqi Rastgar-Moqaddam, three diplomats of Iranian Embassy in Lebanon, along with Kazzem Akhavan, a photojournalist were held captive by the Lebanese Phalange forces on their way to work on the route of Tripoli-Beirut.
