Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued its yearly assessment Sunday, accusing the United States and Britain of domestic and international human rights abuses. The Iranian report, mandated by parliament since 2012, cited police brutality and gun violence targeting minorities in the US while claiming Washington uses human rights rhetoric to advance geopolitical goals, particularly through support for Israel's actions in Gaza.

Britain faced similar charges regarding excessive police force, minority discrimination, and involvement in Gaza, according to the document. Iranian officials also criticized London for restricting human rights protections to its territory, preventing foreign residents from challenging British companies abroad.

The assessments mirror longstanding Western critiques of Iran. Washington has published annual reports on Iranian practices for 20 years, with the 2024 edition alleging killings, disappearances, and torture. British diplomat Simon Manley told the UN in March that Tehran maintains systems targeting women, girls, and religious minorities.
