The Iranian embassy in China thanked the “righteous” Chinese public on Thursday for their support, but said it was not accepting financial help from Chinese individuals and organisations for now.
“The embassy would like to express its sincere gratitude to the civilised and righteous Chinese people,” the mission said in a statement on its official social media account.

“Guided by humanitarian compassion, you chose righteousness and stood in solidarity with the Iranian people, strongly condemning the brutal attacks launched by the United States and Israel against Iranian children and civilians. We will always cherish this bond of friendship.”
Following an assessment of Iran’s capabilities, the embassy had determined that financial aid from the Chinese public was not urgent at this stage, the statement said.
