The US has told Israel it will not be part of any response against Iran, following the Iranian attack on Saturday that saw over 300 drones and missiles fired towards ­Israel, while UN secretary-­general, Antonio Guterres has told the UN Security Council that "now is the time to defuse and de-escalate". Israel’s UN envoy, Gilad Erdad, has urged the council to impose all possible sanctions on Iran, while Iran has stated the attack was in response to an airstrike on its consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus on 1 April that left seven Iranian Revolutionary Guards dead and which was widely blamed on Israel.
