The United States, France, Germany, the UK and Italy on Monday called on Iran to “not spread the conflict beyond Gaza” after an attack by Hamas militants on Israel, according to a joint statement issued by the French presidency.
“We further call on other extremist groups, and any State that may seek to take advantage of such situation, and in particular Iran, not to seek to exploit this situation for other ends, or to spread the conflict beyond Gaza,” said the joint statement issued by the Elysee.
