Speech/statement | Date: 14/04/2024| Ministry of Foreign Affairs

I condemn the illegal and dangerous Iranian attack underway against Israel.

This will further deteriorate an already extremely volatile situation. We must prevent further escalation of violence in the Middle East.

I call upon all parties to exercise maximum restraint.
