#Israel and #Iran continued to trade strikes Friday night and early Saturday morning, as both countries reported air defense activations and explosions. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned on Friday that expansion of the Israel-Iran conflict could "ignite a fire no one can control" and called on both sides and potential parties to the conflict to "give peace a chance."
U.S. President #DonaldTrump said on Friday that Iran had a "maximum" of two weeks to avoid possible U.S. air strikes, indicating he could make a decision before the fortnight deadline he set a day earlier. European powers – Britain, France, Germany and the EU – held talks with Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi in Geneva.
#China stands ready to continue strengthening communication and coordination with all relevant parties, build synergies, uphold justice and play a constructive role in restoring peace in the Middle East, said Fu Cong, China's permanent representative to the United Nations.
