Guterres on Tuesday issued a brief statement after the missile attack condemning “the broadening of the Middle East conflict, with escalation after escalation.” Earlier on Tuesday, “Anyone who cannot unequivocally condemn Iran’s heinous attack on Israel, as nearly all the countries of the world have done, does not deserve to set foot on Israeli soil,” Katz said.
Asked about the move at a press briefing, U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said: “Steps like these are not productive to improving its standing in the world.”.
