A possible Israeli attack on Iran sparks reactions around the world
“Brazil calls on all parties concerned to exercise maximum restraint and calls on the international community to mobilize efforts to avoid escalation,” Itamaraty stated.
The ministry added, “This appeal was conveyed by Minister Mauro Vieira directly to Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian during a bilateral meeting held today at the United Nations headquarters in New York.”
The memorandum was issued after explosions near a military base in Isfahan, one of the largest Iranian cities, 450 kilometers from the capital, Tehran.

No nuclear facilities were affected. According to the authority, there was no missile attack. The airspace was closed, and flights were cancelled.
