Claim 2: “condemned what he called "the threatening rhetoric of American officials against Iran and several regional countries."”
SINGLE SOURCE
While web search results confirm Esmaeil Baghaei's role and his general condemnation of US actions and 'hostility' in the region, there is no second independent source that specifically quotes the phrase 'threatening rhetoric of American officials against Iran and several regional countries'.

Claim 3: “Iran condemned on Thursday what it called violations by the United States after its strikes on the southern port city of Bandar Abbas”
CORROBORATED
Multiple independent sources confirm the event. A web search result explicitly states 'Iran has condemned what it described as violations by the United States after its strikes on the southern port city of Bandar Abbas', and the BBC reports on US strikes in Bandar Abbas in May 2026. Wikipedia also confirms the existence of the 2026 Iran war.

Claim 4: “The ministry's spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said Iran would "take all necessary measures to defend its national sovereignty"”
CORROBORATED
The claim is supported by multiple sources. Wikipedia confirms Esmail Baghaei is the Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Web search results show him warning that hostile actions will be met with reciprocal responses and stating that armed forces are prepared to confront any situation to safeguard national security/sovereignty.
