On Sunday, Nepal expressed serious concern regarding the escalating tensions and hostilities in the Middle East region.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized Nepal’s unwavering commitment to peaceful dispute resolution and its strong disapproval of the use of force.
The statement called upon all relevant parties to exercise maximum restraint and engage in dialogue and diplomacy to restore peace.
According to Reuters, Iran responded to a suspected Israeli strike on its consulate in Syria by launching an attack on April 1, resulting in the deaths of top Revolutionary Guards commanders.
This incident followed months of clashes between Israel and Iran’s regional allies, which were triggered by the conflict in Gaza.
The Middle East remains a volatile area, with Iran-backed factions showing solidarity with the Palestinians and launching attacks from various fronts, including Lebanon, Yemen, and Iraq.
