The UN Secretary General António Guterres on Sunday, June 22, published a desperate warning at the Sunday Council and said that the bombing of Iranian nuclear sites of the United States represents a dangerous escalation in an already unstable region.
“I repeatedly condemned any military escalation in the Middle East,” Guterres said.
“People in the region cannot withstand another cycle of destruction. And yet we risk that after retaliation they will descend to Rathole retaliation.”
He called the strikes “dangerous in turn”, Gutrigress lamented that his earlier request for escalation did not get rid of: “Two days ago, in this chamber, I made a direct appeal: Give peace. This call was not detached.”
GROSSI: “The diplomacy window” closes
Rafael Grossi, CEO of the International Agency for Atomic Energy (IAEA), also dealt with the security council via video connection, warned against further conflict and underlined the betting for the global nuclear order.
“We have the opportunity to return to dialogue and diplomacy,” Grossi said.
“If this window closes, violence and destruction can reach unthinkable levels and the global regime of non -spreading, as we know that it could disintegrate and drop.”
Grossi stressed that nuclear facilities must never be the aim of military operations: “Armed attacks on nuclear facilities should never take place and could lead to radioactive relaxation with serious consequences inside and beyond the state that was attacked.”
Fordow: The craters have confirmed, damage unclear
Grossi confirmed significant surface damage in the Iranian Nuclear Field of Fordow, one of the main centers of enrichment of uranium in the ground.
“The Iranian key nuclear device Fordow is visible craters, which shows the use of the United States of American ammunition penetrating ground,” he said.
However, IAEA boss noted that the full range of damage remains unknown.
“No one, including the IAEA, is currently unable to assess underground damage in Fordow.”
ISFAHAN: Uranium Stockpile Tunnel hit
IAEA also confirmed that parts of the nuclear complex ISFAHAN – specifically the entry into the tunnels used to store highly enriched uranium – were hit in American air strikes.
“We found that the entrances to the underground tunnels on the spot were influenced,” Iaea said in a formal statement on Sunday.
Grossi has developed the Security Council in his notes: “It seems that the entry into the tunnels used for storing the enriched material was hit,” adds that most of the Iranian 60% of the enriched uranium are stored in ISFAHAN.
Iran warns IAEA of protective measures
Iran has indicated that he can take unpublished steps to protect his nuclear materials, which has been worried about reduced transparency.
In response to these reports, Grossi said that such steps must be in accordance with international obligations.
“Any special measure of Iran to protect its nuclear materials and equipment can be taken in accordance with duties in Iran,” he said.
“This is possible-and the necessary-in the non-placing contract.”
International Control Mountains
The UN’s emergency meeting, which was requested by Iran, follows the American Midnight Hammer operation, which focused on Iranian Ford, Natanz and Isfahan soon on Sunday. And Washington claims that strikes were necessary to stop Iranian efforts to enrich weapons.

Unsc meets over us strikes in Iran
The UN Security Council convened an emergency meeting on Sunday to discuss the United States air strikes about Iranian nuclear facilities, in the middle of a growing international concern for a possible wider war in the Middle East.
The meeting demanded Iran, who called the US conducted by a “obvious and unlawful act of aggression”. Strikes, initiated as part of the “Midnight Hammer Operation”, allegedly focused on key Iranian nuclear spots in Ford, Natanz and Isfahan – a device that is expected to be the central to the Iranian program of uranium.
Russia, China, Pakistan require a ceasefire
When the 15 -member body gathered for closed consultations, diplomats said that Russia, China and Pakistan together sent a proposal for resolution and urged the “immediate and unconditional ceasefire” in the Middle East. The fate of the resolution remained uncertain, and diplomats said that the members were asked to submit comments on the proposal by Monday evening.
In order to go through the resolution, it would require at least nine positive votes and no sentences of five permanent members of the Council – the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia and China.
