UN Security Council Holds Emergency Meeting After Iranian Attack on Israel

There is ongoing tension and accusations of threats to peace in the Middle East between Israel and Iran. Israel's UN ambassador, Danny Danon, has called for the United Nations (UN) to designate the Revolutionary Guards as a terrorist organization. The G7 countries have condemned Iran's actions and claimed that its response was not in self-defense but rather a violation of the UN charter. The UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, has urged all parties to avoid escalating tensions through reprisals and to respect the territorial integrity and political independence of other states.
