Russia and China Warn US Strikes on Iran Could Spark Global Conflict

Russia and China have condemned US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, warning they could trigger global war. Russian President Putin called the attacks “unjustified” and pledged support for Iran, while China urged a return to diplomacy. Tensions escalated as Iran launched missiles at a US base in Qatar in retaliation. Putin warned the world was nearing a dangerous point, and Iranian officials voiced frustration at limited support from Russia and China. Despite a 20-year pact, Russia remains cautious about military involvement. At the UN, Russia compared US actions to the 2003 Iraq invasion. The three nations called for an immediate ceasefire.
