Global Reactions to Israel-Iran Escalation: Condemnations, Warnings, and Calls for Peace

Israel launched a sweeping air offensive against Iran, targeting military and nuclear sites, and killing commanders, scientists, and

civilians.

Iran retaliated with missile strikes on Israel, raising fears of a broader regional war.

The UN Secretary-General condemned the attacks, warning, “Any military escalation in the Middle East must be condemned.” The

International Atomic Energy Agency also expressed grave concern over the targeting of nuclear facilities, calling it a threat

to global safety.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, led by China and Russia, strongly condemned Israel’s strikes, calling them a violation of

international law and a threat to global peace.

Turkey’s President Erdogan called Israel “the greatest threat to regional stability,” while Pakistan’s Prime Minister declared full solidarity

with Iran and urged the UN to act.

The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation is being urged to hold an emergency session, with leaders warning, “If the

Muslim world doesn’t act together, every country will eventually become a target.” Western leaders are divided.

Australia’s Foreign Minister called for de-escalation but backed Israel’s right to self-defense, while also labeling Iran’s nuclear program

a threat.

New Zealand’s Islamic Council urged their government to condemn Israel’s “unprovoked” strikes, highlighting civilian casualties.

Meanwhile, the UN and Russia are pushing for negotiations, with Russia offering to mediate and the UN urging,

“Maximum restraint to avoid further escalation.” Leaders warn that continued escalation could trigger a devastating regional war and

waves of migration.

The UN and humanitarian groups are calling for urgent aid to civilians affected by the strikes.

As one official put it, “We must do everything possible to avoid a larger conflict that would have

significant global consequences.” The world is watching closely, hoping for restraint and a return to diplomacy.

As the crisis deepens, global leaders and organizations are urging unity and a renewed commitment to peace.

The message is clear: only through collective action and dialogue can further tragedy be prevented.
