Tehran - (AFP) - The Iranian Foreign Minister accused a number of Western countries of spreading violence in Iran by teaching protesters to make weapons and Molotov cocktails.

"In contravention of the UN charter, a small number of Western governments hiding behind peaceful slogans encourage violence and teach (protesters) how to make weapons and Molotov cocktails in Iran through social media and mass media," Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian said.

Abdullahian spoke by phone Thursday evening with the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, and his positions were published on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The minister stressed that the actions of these Western countries "led to the killing of policemen and insecurity in Iran, and also paved the way for the activity of the terrorist organization of the Islamic State."

At least 13 people, including two children, were killed on October 26 at a Shiite shrine in Shiraz, in southern Iran, in an attack claimed by the Islamic State (ISIS).

The attack on Shiraz came as Iran witnessed a wave of protests about two months ago that erupted after the killing of the 22-year-old Iranian Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, on September 16, three days after she was arrested by the morality police in Tehran.

The authorities described most of the moves as "riots" perpetrated by Iran's "enemies".

On Friday, the Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary Guards warned Iran's enemies that they will not know peace, saying, "We will break your sleep," according to what was reported by the official "IRNA" agency.

Major General Hussein Salami added, "Several days ago, they felt fear and sent messages through different countries asking us not to target them."

He was participating in a ceremony held in the Great Cemetery in Tehran in memory of Hassan Tehrani Moqaddam, nicknamed the "Father of Rockets", who was killed in November 2011 in an explosion at a military base west of the capital.

Salami stressed, "We will not pass unnoticed the crimes committed by the enemies," and added, "We will avenge the blood of the martyrs."
