Canada’s Foreign Minister Urges Restraint After Iran Retaliatory Attack on Israel

On June 14, 2025, Israel launched attacks targeting Iranian nuclear facilities and Tehran's military commanders, prompting Iran to retaliate with missile strikes on Tel Aviv.
The strikes followed Iran's continued nuclear program development and threats against Israel, amid longstanding violations of international obligations reported by the IAEA.
Global reactions included calls for restraint from Canada’s Foreign Minister Anita Anand, condemnation of Israel’s actions by the UAE and Qatar, and affirmations of Israel’s right to self-defense by European leaders.
Anand warned that "further actions could have devastating consequences" and confirmed all Canadian personnel in the Middle East were accounted for while advising Canadians to register and consider leaving the region.
The escalation threatens regional stability and diplomatic efforts, with leaders urging both sides to de-escalate to prevent a broader conflict with widespread repercussions.
