A statement by the High Representative on behalf of the EU was issued regarding Iran’s direct attack on Israel earlier on Sunday.
The EU condemns in the strongest terms the Iranian drone and missile attacks against Israel. This is an unprecedented escalation and a threat to regional security.
The EU reiterates its commitment to the security of Israel. In this highly tense regional situation, further escalation can be no one’s interest. We call on all parties to exercise utmost restraint.
The EU remains fully committed to contribute to de-escalation and the security of the region and is in close contact with all sides to this end.
