Iran and Pakistan urged the United Nations (UN) Security Council to respond to Israel’s illegal attacks on neighboring countries and other countries.

According to a Reuters report, Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a joint statement on the 24th (local time), the last day of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi’s three-day visit to Pakistan.

“The irresponsible actions of the Israeli military are a factor that further escalates tensions in an already volatile region,” the two countries said in a statement. He said he urges it.

The Iranian military attacked mainland Israel for the first time from the night of the 13th to the early morning of the next day, using drones and cruise missiles. This was in retaliation for the bombing of the Iranian consulate in Damascus, the capital of Syria, on the 1st, and the Israeli military announced that it had intercepted 99% of Iranian weapons using its air defense network.

Israel counterattacked again targeting Isfahan in central Iran on the 19th, but Iran also claimed that there was no damage.
