UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called for an immediate halt to retaliatory actions in the Middle East following a recent military strike by Israel on Iran. In a statement released on Friday, a spokesperson for the Secretary-General emphasized the need to break the dangerous cycle of retaliation that has plagued the region.
The Secretary-General's message underscores the urgency of preventing further escalation of tensions, which could have severe consequences not only for the Middle East but also for the broader international community. The statement condemned any acts of retaliation and urged all parties to exercise restraint and seek peaceful resolutions to conflicts.
