More than 10 countries and more than 11 high level groups across the globe condemned the united states attack on Iran nuclear facilities.
In a press briefing, US president Donald Trump says US forces have conducted “very successful” strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
Trump also warns against any retaliation, saying: “Remember, there are many targets left.”
However, the Iranian Foreign Minister says the “outrageous” US attacks on Iran’s “peaceful nuclear installations” will have “everlasting consequences”.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praises Trump’s “bold decision” and says Israel and the US acted in “full coordination”.
Countries around the world including Cuba, Chile, Mexico, Venezuela and from across all the continents condemned US attack.
Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel strongly condemned the US bombing, saying it constituted a “dangerous escalation” and a serious violation of the UN charter.
He added that it “plunges humanity into a crisis with irreversible consequences”.
Chilean President Gabriel Boric also called the US action illegal.
“Chile condemns this US attack,” he wrote on X. “Having power does not authorise you to use it in violation of the rules that we as humanity have given ourselves. Even if you are the United States.”
Mexico, meanwhile, called for dialogue.
“In keeping with our constitutional principles of foreign policy and our country’s pacifist conviction, we reiterate our call to de-escalate tensions in the region.
The restoration of peaceful coexistence among the states of the region is the highest priority,” the Mexican Foreign Ministry wrote on X.
Venezuela also denounced the attack.
In a statement on Telegram, Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil said his country “firmly and categorically condemns the bombing carried out by the US military, at the request of the state of Israel”.
He also called for an “immediate cessation of hostilities”.
Meanwhile, Oman, Qatar and Iraq have all condemned the attacks.
GLOBAL TRACKER learned that so far, congressional reaction has split largely along party lines: Democrats are calling the strikes illegal under the 1973 War Powers Act. They’re also, in some cases, calling for the president’s impeachment.
Republicans, for the most part, are supportive, but there are a couple of notable Republicans, such as Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky and Congressman Thomas Massie, who have condemned the air strikes.
Massie is trying to push for a resolution that would prevent the Trump administration from continuing further attacks on Iran.
Iran says more than 400 people have been killed and at least 3,056 others wounded since Israel launched its attack on June 13.
In Israel also, at least 24 people have been killed in Iranian strikes.
Meanwhile, Hamas lead more than 11 high profile organisations in condemning US strikes on Iran.
In a statement, the Palestinian armed group says it condemns “in the strongest terms the brazen aggression of the United States against the territory and sovereignty of Iran”.
In the same vein, Iran is calling for an investigation into the US strikes on its nuclear facilities.
That’s according to a letter from the country’s nuclear chief Mohammad Eslami to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) head Rafael Grossi, Iran’s SNN news network reported.
Eslami urged Grossi to condemn the US action and take appropriate measures.
