A wave of condemnation has followed the United States' recent airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, with global powers and regional states warning of a widening conflict and urging an immediate return to diplomacy.
PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has urged the international community to act decisively to end the violence in the Middle East , calling for pressure to be placed on Israel to halt its provocations and aggression.
Commenting on Iran’s military response, Anwar said it was expected given the earlier attacks, and reiterated that Malaysia maintained a fair and balanced stance. “Now they are attacking Iran, and Iran has chosen to fight back. The intervention by external powers such as the United States will only escalate the conflict further,” he said.
