Britain’s UN ambassador urges restraint in Israel-Iran conflict

Britain’s ambassador to the United Nations urges all parties in the Israel-Iran conflict to protect civilians and says restraint is vital to prevent further escalation.

“This is a dangerous moment for the entire region, and further escalation is in no one’s interest. Civilians must never be targeted, and we deplore the loss of civilian life,” Ambassador Barbara Woodward tells the UN Security Council.

“Restraint is vital to protect further escalation and loss of life… Military action cannot put an end to Iran’s nuclear capabilities,” Woodward says.
