The Russian Government has condemned the attacks this Friday night against positions of pro-Iran militias in Syria and Iraq, which have left almost 40 dead, which he has described as an operation to increase regional tension as a result of the war in Gaza between Hamas and Israel, for which he has requested the urgent intervention of the Council of United Nations Security.

“We strongly condemn the new act blatant aggression against sovereign states,” said the spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zajarova, “and we therefore seek the UN Security Council to address this emergency situation.”

The US Government has assured that these attacks have been a response to the death of three soldiers in a militia attack last week in Jordan and that in no way pursues a regional conflict. Zajarova, on the other hand, has considered it “obvious” that the United States attacks “are specifically designed to further exacerbate the conflict.”

“By attacking almost without pause targets of supposedly pro-Iran groups in Iraq and Syria“The United States is deliberately trying to plunge the countries of the region even deeper into the conflict,” he added in comments reported by the Russian news agency TASS.

The spokesperson took the opportunity to denounce the support provided by the United Kingdom to these operations and assured that “the obedient participation of the British Air Force “should not create the illusion that we are facing some kind of international coalition.”

“London,” he warned, “is still has to answer for the zeal shown in his support of the provocations of his superiors in Washington.
