UNSC to hold emergency meeting Sunday on Iran's retaliatory attack against Israel

The United Nations Security Council is holding an emergency meeting on April 14, after Israel requested that the council condemn Iran's attack on Israel and designate the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps as a "terrorist" organisation. Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan requested the council hold an emergency meeting in a letter to the council's president. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned Iran's attack, saying he was "deeply alarmed about the very real danger of a devastating region-wide escalation".
