TL;DR Summary

Argentina's highest criminal court has blamed Iran for the 1994 bombing of a Jewish center in Buenos Aires, declaring it a "crime against humanity" and paving the way for victims' families to seek justice. The court ruled that the attack was carried out by Hezbollah in retaliation for Argentina reneging on a nuclear cooperation deal with Iran. While the ruling was celebrated as historic, it failed to provide concrete evidence of Iran's direct involvement, and the case remains open after 30 years of setbacks and scandals.
