UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned Iran's drone attacks targeting Israel on Saturday as a "serious escalation" and called on all sides to show restraint to avoid a devastating regional conflagration.
"I strongly condemn the serious escalation represented by the large-scale attack launched on Israel by the Islamic Republic of Iran," he said in a statement.
"I am deeply alarmed about the very real danger of a devastating region-wide escalation. I urge all parties to exercise maximum restraint to avoid any action that could lead to major military confrontations on multiple fronts in the Middle East."
