G7 Foreign Ministers Call for Immediate Halt to Attacks on Civilians in Iran War
G7 foreign ministers on the second day of their meeting in France demanded an immediate cessation of attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure in the Iran war.
The ministers urged all warring parties to minimize the war's impact on civilians, regional partners and critical infrastructure. They emphasized preventing the expansion of the crisis across the region and reducing its humanitarian consequences.
The statement came during ongoing discussions among the Group of Seven's top diplomats gathered in France. It highlights international concerns over the conflict's toll on non-combatants and broader stability in the Middle East.
No further details on specific actions or timelines were provided in the call, but the G7's position underscores a unified push for de-escalation amid reports of escalating violence. The ministers' appeal aligns with repeated global efforts to protect civilian lives and infrastructure in active war zones.
The meeting in France continues as world leaders monitor developments in the Iran war, which has drawn widespread attention due to its potential for wider regional fallout.
