Italy tells Israel to be 'mature' and avoid fueling the 'spiral of violence'

Italy’s defense minister says Iran “crossed a precise red line” with its direct attack on Israel, but calls on Israel to avoid fueling a spiral of violence in the region.

Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto speaks by phone with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and expresses Italy’s continued friendship with Israel, according to a ministry statement.

According to the statement, Crosetto tells Gallant “the crossing of a precise red line with the direct attack on Israel, on its territory, is worrying but it is precisely now that we need to be mature and act according to the rules of international law to avoid fueling the spiral of violence that would see us all defeated.”
