China’s ambassador to the UN, Fu Cong, has told the UNSC that China “strongly condemns the US attacks on Iran and the bombing of nuclear facilities”, Al Jazeera reports.
“We call for an immediate ceasefire”, he said, adding that “China is deeply concerned about the risk of the situation getting out of control”.
“The parties to the conflict, Israel, in particular, should reach an immediate ceasefire” to prevent “escalation” and a “spillover” of war, he said.
