UN Security Council to Meet Friday Over Escalating Iran-Israel Conflict

Report by “Safarti Tarjuman” International News Desk

UNITED NATIONS — The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is scheduled to hold a crucial session on Friday to deliberate on the rapidly intensifying conflict between Iran and Israel, amid mounting global concern over regional stability.

According to diplomatic sources cited by Agence France-Presse, the emergency meeting was requested by Iran and is supported by Russia, China, and Pakistan. The call for a second session in less than a week underscores the deepening crisis in the Middle East, which has drawn in multiple global powers and raised fears of broader escalation.

The UNSC presidency, currently held by Guyana, confirmed the meeting will take place on Friday, with member states expected to assess the ongoing hostilities and discuss possible international responses.

The Iran-Israel conflict has intensified dramatically over recent days following mutual strikes, cyberattacks, and high-level military assassinations. World leaders have urged restraint, warning that continued escalation could spiral into a regional or even global confrontation.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres earlier expressed alarm at the developments, urging all parties to return to diplomacy and uphold international law.
