Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has harshly denounced the United States for assassinating Iranian commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani and for resorting to targeted killings whenever it feels right.

Addressing reporters on Tuesday, Mohamad said the US drone attack on Soleimani had been against international law.

He urged Muslim countries to unite to protect themselves against external threats.

“The time is right for Muslim countries to come together,” Mahathir said.

“We are no longer safe now. If anybody insults or says something that somebody doesn’t like, it is all right for that person from another country to send a drone and perhaps have a shot at me,” the Malaysian prime minister said.

Iran has pledged a “harsh revenge” against America for the assassination.
