Tehran launched more than 300 missiles and drones at Israeli targets, raising fears of a major escalation in the Israel-Hamas war.
European leaders condemned the retaliatory attack by Iran on Israel late Saturday amid soaring fears of a major escalation in the Mideast conflict.
Tehran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles and drones against targets in Israel, Iranian state media reported, in a move that could spark an escalation in the fighting in the Middle East. Iran had threatened to retaliate against a deadly Israeli strike on its consulate in Syria.
The Israeli military said the launches numbered more than 300 but 99 percent of them were intercepted. U.S. President Joe Biden said American forces helped Israel down “nearly all” the drones and missiles and pledged to convene allies to develop a unified response.
European Council President Charles Michel said EU leaders “strongly condemn” the attack by Iran on Israel. “Everything must be done to prevent further regional escalation,” he said in a post on X.
Soooo if Israel bombs Iranian targets and an embassy that’s okay, but if Iran retaliates we react??
Well, Iran has the right to defend itself
Condemning Iran because of attacking back but when Israel does it - it suppose to be okay?
Double standards.
Most (if not all) are hypocrites and cannot talk about “human rights” anymore. None of these presidents care about human rights. They only care when it is in their own benefit.
Condemning Iran because of attacking back but when Israel does it - it suppose to be okay? Double standards.
No, you are wrong. The EU condemned the atack on the embassy in Damascus, see link
“BRUSSELS, April 3 (Reuters) - The European Union on Wednesday condemned an airstrike on the Iranian embassy in Damascus on April 1 that killed seven people and called on countries in the region to show restraint.”
Please respond in an informed way, instead of escalating things without any basis. Let’s stay on topic.
I honestly did not know that, thank you. Can’t keep up with all the news while life goes on.
But did they do anything beyond empty words? Or did they keep supplying arms to Israel knowing that Israel will keep doing what it’s been doing?
The UN is toothless, and the few times it has intervened in geopolitical conflicts, it generally did not end well for anyone.
Lemmites aren’t going to let facts get in the way of a good circlejerk.
Ah, I see a Redditor infiltrated with their random comments. Hi there.
That’s very rich after your original comment.
I don’t understand what you mean and I honestly don’t care. It unfortunately seems, I’ll have to block you.
Spread misinformation and then block those who call you out.
Peak fediverse
And once more "the West"a leaders prove to the world that they are nothing but violent hypocrites. Barbaric acts of terrorism are perfectly fine, when carried out on “brown” people, but god forbid they fight back against blatant violations of international war.
The current generation of leaders is not only deeply reprehensible, they are destroying all the progress made towards a more peaceful and rule based international order over the past 80 years.
F israel.
Yeah International Laws can fuck off right? Its Eu best democratic and humanist area.
You know what happened last night? That happens in Ukraine every night, with the same type of drones and missles.
I’m fairly certain Iran is not invading Israel.
“What happens when X country attacks Y country also happens when W country attacks Z country” is not especially enlightening. Wars are wars. Modern wars will be fought with similar weapons. Comparing two wars that are happening for two different reasons doesn’t really make sense.
Comparing the magnitude of battle does make sense to anyone but those that look to constantly argue.
Rather than make personal attacks, which violates our civility rule, perhaps you could explain why you consider the magnitude of two attacks in two different wars devoid of any other context to be enlightening.
