UN chief says he is "gravely alarmed" by US strike on Iran, calls for peace

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was “gravely alarmed” by the US strike on Iran early Sunday, calling for peace and warning against further escalation in the turbulent region.
“There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world.”
He urged all UN member states to de-escalate, under their obligations to the UN charter and international law.
“There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy,” he wrote.
