The G7 foreign ministers released a statement in response to the Israeli Occupation's drone attack on Iran.

They urged all parties to cease any escalation in the Middle East and held Iran responsible for its destabilizing actions in the region.

Emphasizing the need to address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, they called for increased efforts.

Stability in the Middle East and prevention of further escalation were highlighted as crucial objectives.

The G7 ministers urged Iran to sever ties with Hamas and opposed a large-scale military operation in Rafah, south of Gaza, citing potential catastrophic consequences.

They also called for an immediate and sustainable ceasefire in Gaza, the release of captives, and the unimpeded delivery of aid.

Ensuring the safety of shipping and navigation in the Red Sea was underscored as a priority, with ongoing efforts to protect vessels in the region.
