UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, urged the United States and Israel to end their attacks against Iran, noting the war risks "getting completely out of control".

Axar.az reports, citing Euronews, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres stated that "this war is causing immense trouble to civilians and its propagation around the global economy can be really dramatic, with potential tragic consequences, especially for the least developed countries."

The UN Secretary General also urged Iran to stop attacking its neighbours arguing "they were never parties" to this war and asked the Islamic Republic to open the Strait of Hormuz.

"The prolonged closure of the Strait is causing pain for those who have nothing to do with this. It's time for diplomacy to prevail over war," Guterres said.
