The president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, asked the UN this Saturday to “meet urgently” and “immediately commit” to peace after Iran launched a barrage of missiles and drones against Israel in response to the recent attack against its consulate in Syria.
“Everyone knows how wars begin, no one knows how they end. I wish the people of Israel were high enough like their ancestors to stop the madness of their ruler. The United Nations must meet urgently and must immediately commit to peace,” expressed the Colombian president on the social network
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard confirmed that this offensive, the first direct by that country against Israeli territory, is in retaliation for the bombing of its consulate in Damascus on April 1, in which seven members of the Revolutionary Guard died.
