Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi and UN Secretary-General António Guterres held urgent talks Tuesday to address the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza and Lebanon amid rising regional tensions. The call comes as Israeli airstrikes intensify and Iran warns of a \"decisive response\" to potential aggression.
Araghchi described Israel’s actions as \"catastrophic,\" urging the UN to stop Tel Aviv’s \"crimes\" and ensure aid reaches war-torn areas. He emphasized Iran’s commitment to regional stability but warned of consequences for \"adventurism\" – a clear nod to recent missile exchanges.
Guterres echoed concerns about escalating violence, pledging continued UN peacekeeping efforts in southern Lebanon despite risks to personnel. Both leaders also discussed Yemen’s humanitarian crisis, revealing the widening ripple effects of the conflict.
The timing is critical: October’s Iranian missile strike on Israel and Tel Aviv’s threats against Tehran have pushed the region closer to a broader conflict. Araghchi notably called out the US as Israel’s \"main supporter,\" suggesting Washington shares responsibility for the crisis.
With over 2 million displaced Gazans and Lebanon’s infrastructure crumbling, this high-stakes diplomacy could determine whether the region plunges deeper into chaos – or finds a path to ceasefire. Stay tuned as global leaders race against the clock .
