Brazil Criticizes US-Israeli Military Strikes Against Iranian Targets

SAO PAULO – Brazil’s government issued a stern rebuke Saturday following joint military strikes by the United States and Israel targeting Iranian facilities, calling the actions deeply troubling.

In an official statement, Brazilian officials emphasized their concerns about the timing of the military operations. “The attacks occurred amid a negotiation process between the parties, which is the only viable path to peace, a position traditionally defended by Brazil in the region,” the government declared.

The South American nation urged all involved countries to honor international legal standards and show maximum caution to prevent further escalation of conflict while safeguarding civilian populations.

Brazil’s diplomatic missions throughout the Middle East are closely tracking the situation, with special focus on protecting Brazilian citizens living in nations affected by the military actions, the statement noted.
