World Leaders Warn Against Escalating Middle East Crisis

Chinese FM warns world can't return to 'law of the jungle' as US-Israel strikes against Iran continue, with Trump claiming Iran is being 'decimated'.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has warned that the world cannot return to the 'law of the jungle' as the US-Israel military campaign against Iran continues to escalate tensions across the Middle East. This comes as US President Donald Trump claims Iran is being 'decimated' by the ongoing strikes, though he has offered only vague details about his demand for an 'unconditional surrender' from Tehran.
The crisis shows no signs of abating, with devastating consequences rippling across the region as the conflict enters its second week. Trump has left open the possibility of deploying American ground troops, raising the stakes even further. {{IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER}}
