A senior Kenyan official urges Iran and Israel to protect foreign diplomatic missions must be protected after a strike on Tel Aviv’s Ramat Gan area hit within several hundred metres of the East African country’s embassy, Reuters reports.

“Foreign missions are inviolable under international law and must be excluded and protected from armed conflict at all times,” Korir Sing’Oei, the principal secretary at Kenya’s foreign affairs ministry, told Reuters.

Sing’Oei has also shared a message from Kenya’s ambassador to Israel saying embassy staff had been working from home and were safe.
