The G7 must respond to Iran’s attack on Israel, Germany’s foreign minister said, adding that measures were being discussed with her counterparts at a meeting in Italy, AFP reports.

“We are also discussing further measures here at the G7, because of course there must be a response to this unprecedented incident,” Annalena Baerbock said from the island of Capri. She added however that “there must be no further escalation in the region, that would be fatal for its people”.
