President Emmanuel Macron said France will do everything possible to avoid an escalation in the Middle East. He has urged Israel to aim to isolate Iran rather than escalate the conflict.
Noting that the situation in the region is highly volatile, Macron said Iran's response over the weekend to the deadly April 1 attack on its consulate in Damascus, Syria, was "disproportionate."
Tehran says it exercised its "right to self-defense" in its attack on Israel.
Israel and Iran accused each other at the United Nations on Sunday of being the main threat to peace in the Middle East, each calling on the Security Council to impose sanctions on their sworn enemy.
"The mask has been removed. Iran, the number one global sponsor of terror, has exposed its true face as a destabilizer of the region and the world," Israel's UN ambassador Gilad Erdan told an emergency Security Council meeting called after Tehran's unprecedented attack on Israel. .
Addressing the emergency meeting, Iran's ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, insisted that the Islamic republic was exercising its "natural right to self-defense."
