(Jerusalem Post) Juliane Helmhold and Daniel J. Roth - Israel's Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon informed the Security Council on Thursday that in January 2018 Iran had carried out two ballistic missile tests in clear violation of Security Council Resolution 2231, which calls upon Iran not to undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons. "Iran continues to ignore its obligations to the international community and further destabilizes the Middle East, particularly in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen and the Gaza Strip," Danon stated. Iranian breaches this year include "the missiles it fired from Syria into Israel and the armed UAV it launched from Syria into Israeli airspace. Its activities pose a direct threat to Israel and the entire region."
